Eaton Residential Arc Fault Detection Device RCBO 16A Current Rating 2-Pole 30 mA Trip Sensitivity 187204 AFDD-16/2/B/003-A

Eaton 187204 AFDD-16/2/B/003-A Residential Arc Fault Detection Device (RCBO) combines advanced protective technologies to secure electrical installations in residential and commercial environments. This device offers a 16 Amp current rating with a 2-pole setup and 30 mA trip sensitivity, ensuring comprehensive detection and interruption of dangerous electrical faults.

The device integrates multiple types of breakers: a residual current device (RCD) to monitor line imbalances and mitigate electric shock risks, a miniature circuit breaker (MCB) to prevent short circuits and overloads, and an arc fault detection device (AFDD) to sense arc faults that can lead to electrical fires. It operates with a Type B tripping characteristic and a thermal magnetic mechanism, providing instantaneous break time with a breaking capacity of 10kA for high fault capacity interruptions.

The compact design, measuring 70 mm in depth, allows for easy installation on a DIN rail using screw terminals. The reset function utilizes a toggle switch for user-friendly control. Visual LED indicators convey status: green light during normal operation and flashing yellow codes to indicate specific fault types including series arc faults, parallel arc faults, overvoltage, and overheating.

This Eaton AFDD+ series device aligns with RoHS and IEC standards, representing a reliable solution for electrical fire prevention in modern buildings. Originating from Czech Republic, it combines robust safety features with practical installation and maintenance capabilities.

Type B tripping characteristic tailored for residential and commercial electrical systems. Dual-pole configuration provides comprehensive circuit coverage. 30 mA trip sensitivity enhances precision in earth leakage detection.

Toggle switch actuator simplifies manual resetting after trips. Thermal magnetic mechanism ensures reliable operation under varying fault conditions. Breaking capacity of 10kA caters to high short-circuit fault currents.
