Tesla TRCD2P20E 20 Amp RCD/MCB Safety Switch RCBO 6kA Electronic 2 Module 240V 50/60Hz IEC61009-1

Description

Combined earth leakage and overload cover for a 20 amp circuit.

The Tesla TRCD2P20E is a two pole 20 amp RCBO safety switch with a 6kA rating. It brings residual current and overcurrent protection together in one two module unit made to IEC61009-1, switching the active and neutral of a single phase circuit as a single device.

Why it Matters

Both Functions in a Single Unit
An RCBO is an RCD and an MCB built into one body. The TRCD2P20E protects a 20 amp circuit against earth leakage and against overload or short circuit together, and it opens the circuit as soon as either fault is detected. Giving a circuit its own combined device means it does not depend on a shared upstream RCD covering a whole group of circuits, which keeps a single load fault from tripping a whole group. It also uses less rail than a separate RCD and breaker pair, which frees space in the enclosure for other devices on the same board.

6kA Electronic Device
This is the electronic model in the Tesla two pole safety switch line, built to IEC61009-1 with a 6000A breaking capacity for boards where the fault level sits above a basic domestic supply. It runs on 240V at 50/60Hz for standard Australian single phase circuits. Endurance figures of 10,000 mechanical and 4,000 electrical operations mark it as a device intended for routine switching, and the IP20 rating means it is designed for mounting inside a closed switchboard. At 20 amps it handles circuits with a higher continuous load than the lower rated models.

Practical on the Switchboard
Several features speed up install and maintenance. The separate RCD trip flag signals at a glance whether earth leakage caused a trip, so an electrician spends less time working out the cause. The device accepts supply on the top or the bottom, being line load compatible either way, which gives freedom when fitting it into an existing layout. There is also no need to cut the busbar to seat the unit, so fit off is neat and quick even where a row of these devices shares one board.

Tesla JVL5 Safety Switch Family
The TRCD2P20E is one of the Tesla JVL5 combined RCD and MCB safety switches, a range covering several current ratings. This electronic 20 amp two pole unit guards a single final circuit and shares its two module size, IEC61009-1 build and V08030 approval with the other electronic models, which keeps a board consistent whichever ratings are fitted and makes stocking and replacement simpler for the installer.

Is the Tesla TRCD2P20E a combined RCD and MCB?
Yes. It is an RCBO built to IEC61009-1, so a single 20 amp device provides both earth leakage and overcurrent protection.

How many conductors does the TRCD2P20E isolate?
Being two pole, it switches both the active and the neutral of a single phase circuit when tripped or turned off.

What is the TRCD2P20E breaking capacity?
It carries a 6kA (6000A) breaking capacity as the electronic 20 amp model, rated 240V at 50/60Hz.
