JC3LE-WD 1P+N mini RCBO single Module 6KA

The circuit breaker with advanced safety features like earth leakage and overload protection is now available. It ensures complete power isolation during faults, making homes and buildings significantly safer.

A significant advancement in electrical safety has arrived with the launch of the JC3LE-WD RCBOs. These devices are designed to provide superior protection for homes, offices, and industrial buildings, integrating multiple critical safety functions into a single, reliable unit.

For the average homeowner, this technology translates to greater peace of mind. The core function of this device is to constantly monitor the electrical current. If it detects a dangerous fault, such as a short circuit or an overload that could cause wires to overheat, it instantly cuts off the power. This rapid response is crucial for preventing electrical fires and protecting expensive appliances.

A particularly important feature is its earth leakage protection, which is sensitive enough to trip at 30mA. This is a life-saving function designed to prevent severe electric shocks. If someone accidentally touches a live wire, causing even a small amount of current to flow through their body, the device will disconnect the circuit in a fraction of a second, greatly reducing the risk of injury.

Furthermore, this circuit breaker includes a unique “switched neutral” capability. Many standard breakers only disconnect the live wire when they trip. This new model, however, disconnects both the live and neutral wires, ensuring a circuit is completely dead. This not only makes it safer for anyone performing electrical work but also simplifies the testing process for electricians, saving time and effort during installation and maintenance.

Available in a wide range of rated currents, from 2A for lighting circuits up to 40A for heavy-duty applications like kitchen cooktops, its versatility makes it suitable for virtually any circuit in a modern building. With a high breaking capacity of 6kA, it is robust enough to handle major power surges, a common concern during severe weather events that can cause transformer issues.

By combining overload, short-circuit, and life-saving earth leakage protection into one compact device, this technology represents a streamlined and highly effective solution for making our living and working spaces safer from electrical hazards. It embodies a proactive step towards preventing the property damage and personal harm that can result from electrical system failures.
