        Clipsal RCBE210/30S | Resi MAX RCBO SLIM 1P+N 10A C Curve | 30mA Type A

        Clearance  - NO RETURNS 

        The Clipsal RCBE21030S is a 10 amp residual current breaker with overcurrent protection (RCBO), rated 240V AC and designed for domestic switchboards and load centres. The RCBE21030S combines RCD (residual current device) and MCB (miniature circuit breaker) functionality into a single 1-module slim device. It complies with AS/NZS 61009 and detects both AC and pulsating DC fault currents at 30mA.

        The RCBE21030S addresses a key installation challenge in residential work: space constraints in switchboards. A standard dual-device approach (separate RCD and MCB) requires two modules. The slim combo design lets electricians install both circuit protection and fault detection in a single module, maximising space for additional circuits without upgrading the switchboard. Licensed electricians value this for retrofits where switchboard space is already tight and for new builds where reducing overall board depth cuts installation time and material cost.

        The RCBE21030S fits straight into the Resi MAX ecosystem, which is optimised for single-phase residential applications. Top or bottom wiring flexibility means no rewiring is needed when replacing an alternative brand RCBO — both line and load terminals are interchangeable. The trip-free locking mechanism allows the device to lock in ON or OFF position for safety during maintenance. Type A sensitivity (30mA) covers the majority of domestic installations where general-purpose circuits and power outlets are protected, making this a standard spec for kitchen, bathroom, and living area circuits.

        Features

        • Residual current breaker with overcurrent protection — combines RCD and MCB in a single 1-module slim design for circuit protection and fault detection in a single device.
        • 10 amp rated current — suitable for general-purpose domestic circuits including lighting, power outlets, and small appliance loads at 10A per circuit.
        • Type A RCD at 30mA — senses both AC and pulsating DC residual currents, covering the majority of residential applications without the higher cost of Type B devices.
        • C-curve thermal-magnetic trip — C-curve characteristic suits general installations where brief inrush currents are minimal; standard for domestic switches, outlets, and general loads.
        • Slim module design — 18mm width allows more RCBOs and MCBs to fit in the same switchboard enclosure, reducing space pressure on domestic boards.
        • 4.5kA breaking capacity — suitable for residential fault levels up to 4.5kA; adequate for homes outside industrial areas and most suburban installations.
        • Top or bottom wiring terminals — both line and load terminals are wiring-neutral, so no rewiring is required if replacing an alternative brand RCBO or swapping to a different pole configuration later.
        • Trip-free locking mechanism — ON/OFF position lock prevents accidental re-energisation during maintenance or fault-finding, enhancing site safety.
        • AS/NZS 61009 compliant — meets Australian and New Zealand electrical standards for residual current breakers with overcurrent protection.
        • 2-year warranty — Clipsal factory-backed warranty covers manufacturing defects under domestic and commercial use, with in-home servicing available through authorised suppliers.

        Where to use

        • General-purpose circuits — the RCBE21030S at 10A is standard for lighting circuits and general power outlets throughout the home where circuit protection is required by modern wiring rules.
        • Kitchen bench circuits — domestic kitchens typically use 10A or 15A circuits for underbench power outlets and small appliance feeds; the 10A RCBE21030S suits kitchens where the load is distributed across multiple circuits rather than concentrated on a single point.
        • Bathroom and wet area circuits — 10A circuits with Type A RCD protection are standard for bathroom lighting, exhaust fans, and heated towel rails where leakage current detection is mandatory.
        • Retrofit and renovation work — where an existing switchboard has no spare modules, the RCBE21030S's slim profile allows installation without a full board upgrade or sub-board installation.
        • New home construction — Resi MAX devices are specified by builders as the standard circuit protection for new single-phase domestic installations due to cost, compatibility, and simplicity.
        • Space-constrained switchboards — caravans, granny flats, and compact residential outbuildings where switchboard depth is limited benefit from the slim module design that frees space for additional circuits.

        The RCBE21030S is not suitable for applications exceeding 4.5kA fault level (industrial sites, properties near power substations) or for circuits requiring higher breaking capacity protection. It is designed for AC general use and does not provide the enhanced DC fault detection of Type B RCBOs where DC systems (solar installations) are connected.

        Verified Sparky Direct customer reviews: Clipsal Resi MAX RCBO SLIM 1P+N 10A C Curve 30mA Type A (RCBE21030S)

        "Excellent, just what I ordered, perfect condition and reasonable price." — Richard

        "Product arrived in excellent condition." — BD

        "Very good product and at a great price." — Andy G

        (RCBE21030S)

        Yes, the RCBE21030S complies with AS/NZS 61009, the Australian and New Zealand standard for residual current breakers with overcurrent protection. It is approved for use in domestic installations and meets the National Electrical Installation Code requirements for protective devices.

        The RCBE21030S mounts directly to a standard DIN rail inside a switchboard or sub-board enclosure. It does not install in a wall box — it is a modular device that clips onto the switchboard rail. No wall box or backing plate is needed.

        The RCBE21030S is Type A at 30mA, which detects AC and pulsating DC faults down to 30mA. This is the standard sensitivity for general domestic circuits (lighting, outlets, fans). Type B RCBOs detect smooth DC as well and are only needed for installations with DC sources such as solar panels. Higher sensitivity versions at 10mA are available but are less commonly used for standard circuits. The 10A current rating suits general-purpose circuits where the load is distributed — if a single point needs higher capacity, a 16A or 20A RCBE device is available.

        The RCBE21030S is designed as a drop-in replacement. Both line and load terminals are wiring-neutral, meaning you can connect to either the top or bottom of the device — no rewiring is needed. However, you must confirm that the incoming circuit and outgoing loads match the 10A rating and that the existing switchboard layout permits removal of the dual device and installation of the single-module slim RCBO.

        The trip-free locking device allows you to lock the RCBE21030S handle in the ON or OFF position. During fault-finding or maintenance work, the lock prevents the device from being inadvertently reset if a fault is still present. This improves safety on site by ensuring the circuit stays de-energised until the fault is resolved and the lock is deliberately released.

        The RCBE21030S carries a 2-year manufacturer's warranty from invoice date, covering both domestic and commercial use. The warranty covers manufacturing defects and is handled through Clipsal's in-home warranty scheme — you do not need to remove the device for claim assessment. The warranty does not cover damage caused by external fault conditions or incorrect installation.

        The Clipsal RCBE21030S is available online from Sparky Direct, with Australia-wide delivery to any state or territory including regional areas. Sparky Direct is an Australian electrical wholesaler established in 2005, supplying more than 500,000 customers with transparent trade pricing.
