ABB DS201 B16 G30 – Residual Current Circuit Breaker with Short-Time Delay (Type G)
The ABB DS201 B16 G30 combines residual current and line protection in a single compact device. It provides protection at a rated current of 16 A and trips at a residual current of 30 mA. This gives you personal, property, and line protection in just two modular units.
Your benefits at a glance
-
Two protection functions: residual current device (RCD) protection and line protection in one device – saves space and costs.
-
Personal protection: 30 mA residual current tripping reliably protects against dangerous touch currents.
-
Characteristic B: Perfect for lighting, sockets and household appliances (16 A).
-
Short-time delayed (Type G): Prevents false tripping due to short surge currents – proven according to ÖVE standard.
-
Compact: Only 2 TE (35.0 mm) on the DIN rail.
-
ABB quality: Tested according to IEC/EN 61009 and approved worldwide.
Protective function and use
As a type A/G circuit breaker with short-time delay, the DS201 B16 G30 detects alternating fault currents and pulsating direct fault currents. The delay prevents unwanted tripping during short surge currents. Therefore, it is widely used in Austria, particularly according to the ÖVE standard. Its tripping characteristic B triggers at 3 to 5 times the rated current. This makes the circuit breaker especially suitable for lighting, sockets, and typical household appliances.

Assembly and wiring
The DS201 B16 G30 easily snaps onto a 35 mm DIN rail. You then connect the conductors using the screw terminals. Power can be fed in from both the top and bottom. Additionally, you can connect the RCBO (residual current circuit breaker with overload protection) to the ABB PS busbar system. Furthermore, the test button simplifies regular functional testing of the RCD section.
