ABB DS201 and DS201M are 1P+N residual current circuit breakers with overcurrent protection (RCBOs). They combine residual current, overload and short-circuit protection for individual single-phase circuits, unlike an F200 RCCB which requires separate overcurrent protection.
The existing list covers DS201 and DS201M references. Select the residual-current type and sensitivity as well as the overcurrent trip curve, rated current and breaking capacity; these are separate protection characteristics.
Combined Circuit Protection
DS201 RCBOs are used for individual outgoing circuits in residential, commercial and industrial installations. Combining the protection functions in one device allows each circuit to have its own residual-current and overcurrent protection. The device must suit the load, fault level and installation requirements.
DS201 & DS201M Ratings
- Configuration: ABB documents DS201 and DS201M as 1P+N devices for single-phase circuits. Follow the phase/neutral terminal markings and connection instructions.
- Breaking capacity: ABB technical data identifies Icn of 6 kA for DS201 and 10 kA for DS201M under IEC/EN 61009-1. DS201 L is a separate 4.5 kA version. Do not mix Icn with an Icu rating under a different test standard.
- Voltage and sensitivity: ABB’s referenced DS201/DS201M technical data lists 230–240 V and model-dependent residual operating currents of 10, 30, 100 and 300 mA. Not every curve, current or residual-current type is available in every combination.
Residual-Current Type Is Not the Trip Curve
The existing table contains Type AC references with B or C overcurrent curves. In a designation such as DS201 B16 AC30, “B” is the overcurrent trip curve, not Type B residual-current protection. Select the RCD type from the separate type designation and official product data.
- Type AC: detects sinusoidal AC earth-fault currents. Check the load waveform and local requirements before selecting it.
- Type A: ABB documents separately designated variants for sinusoidal AC and pulsating DC residual current. Do not assume an AC reference has Type A performance.
- Type F: ABB documents specific DS201M F variants. Their dedicated data and IEC/EN 62423 requirements must be checked; do not transfer Type F performance to the AC references in this table.
- AP-R or other special versions: use their own immunity, timing and approval information. No Type B residual-current capability is claimed for these DS201/DS201M entries.
Standards & Selecting a Circuit
ABB specifies IEC/EN 61009-1 and IEC/EN 61009-2-1 for the referenced DS201/DS201M RCBOs. Regional or specially designated versions require their own documentation. A 30 mA device may be used for additional protection where the installation rules require it; a higher IΔn value or time-delayed version is not automatically equivalent for that purpose.
Confirm AC supply voltage and frequency, circuit and conductor current rating, poles, load starting current, trip curve, IΔn and expected fault-current waveform. Check prospective short-circuit current against the exact Icn rating, together with upstream coordination and installation conditions. Obtain the connected equipment manufacturer’s RCD requirement for electronic loads.
