The NHP MOD6+ RCBO (MD6RS 30A) is a high-quality residual current breaker with overcurrent protection, designed for domestic, commercial, and light industrial installations. Featuring a 6kA short-circuit rating, 30mA earth leakage protection, and a neutral tail (pigtail) for easy installation, this compact device provides both overload and earth leakage protection in a single 18mm DIN-mounted module.

Key Features:

• Combined RCD and MCB Protection: Protects against short circuits, overloads, and earth leakage faults, providing complete circuit protection.
• 6kA Breaking Capacity: Suitable for installations requiring a 6,000A short-circuit withstand, meeting Australian standards.
• Type A Leakage Protection: Detects both AC and pulsating DC residual currents for enhanced safety across a wider range of electrical loads.
• C Curve Trip Characteristic: Ideal for general-purpose applications, handling inrush currents typically found in lighting, small motors, and general appliances.
• Switched Neutral with Pigtail Tail: Includes a pre-wired 1-pole + switched neutral configuration with neutral tail, simplifying wiring and reducing installation time.
• Compact 18mm Width: Saves valuable space in crowded switchboards, ideal for modern distribution boards.
• Extended Mechanical and Electrical Life:
  • Mechanical life: 20,000 cycles
  • Electrical life: 10,000 cycles
• DIN Rail Mounted: Quick and secure mounting into standard DIN rail switchboards.
