Eaton Quicklag 1 Pole 16A RCBO Earth Leakage Breaker

The Eaton Quicklag ELQ116C3TD-A 1 Pole 10A RCBO Earth Leakage Breaker is a high-performance, compact protection device that combines the functions of a miniature circuit breaker (MCB) and a residual current device (RCD). Engineered to protect against overloads, short circuits, and earth leakage, this device is ideal for use in residential and commercial electrical installations where space, safety, and compliance are critical.

Key Features:

• Combined MCB + RCD Protection: Offers dual protection from overcurrent (MCB) and earth leakage faults (RCD) in a single, space-saving unit.
• Type A RCD Sensitivity: Detects both AC and pulsating DC residual currents, ensuring safety across a wide range of electrical equipment.
• 30mA Trip Sensitivity: Complies with AS/NZS 3190 and AS/NZS 3111, ideal for protecting human life in general power and lighting circuits.
• 6kA Breaking Capacity: Suitable for applications with prospective short circuit currents up to 6kA, offering solid protection in modern installations.
• Permanent Neutral Tail: Includes a 950mm pre-connected neutral conductor, simplifying wiring and ensuring reliable neutral connection.
• Trip Indication Window: Provides a clear visual signal when the breaker has tripped, aiding in quick diagnostics.
• Yellow Test Button: Easily identifiable Type A RCD test button for routine functionality testing and safety verification.
