Learn more by watching our Clipsal RCBE220/30S | 20AMP RCBO 1P+N 4.5kA Resi MAX video.
The Clipsal RCBE220/30S is a residual current breaker with overcurrent protection (RCBO) rated 20A, 240V AC, designed for single-pole protection with a separate neutral connection. The RCBE220/30S combines RCD (earth leakage) and MCB (overcurrent) functions in one slimline module, fitting the space of just one DIN rail position on a switchboard. It is certified to AS/NZS 61009 and is compatible with Clipsal Resi MAX switchboards and accessories. The RCBE220/30S can be wired from the top or bottom, and both line and load terminals are non-sensitive, so installation does not require rewiring if replacing an alternative brand.
Retrofitting and upgrades frequently require adding residual current protection to existing circuits. The RCBE220/30S is slimline and space-saving, occupying just one module and allowing more protection devices to fit in confined switchboards. Licensed electricians value RCBOs for domestic extensions and renovations because they reduce installation time compared to separate RCD and MCB combinations. The Clipsal Resi MAX range is a cost-effective alternative to dual-module protection, and the RCBE220/30S wires from top or bottom, eliminating the need to rework existing cabling during replacement.
Residential properties requiring additional circuits or circuit protection upgrades benefit from the RCBE220/30S as a direct retrofit where space in the switchboard is limited. The 20A rating is common for general power distribution on domestic subcircuits, kitchens, and living areas. Trip-free locking holds the breaker in the ON or OFF position even under fault conditions, and thermal-magnetic operation provides fast response to both gradual overloads and high short-circuit currents. The device is Type A earth-leakage protection, detecting both AC and pulsating DC earth faults with a 30mA sensitivity threshold, suitable for standard residential circuits.
The Clipsal RCBE220/30S is not suitable for external walls, outdoor installations, damp exposed locations, wet areas, or any application where weatherproof or submersible protection is required. Do not use the RCBE220/30S in bathrooms, laundries, or areas subject to splash, rain, or high humidity without an enclosure meeting IP40 or higher.
Verified Sparky Direct customer reviews: Clipsal RCBE220/30S (RCBE220/30S)
"Very good item, purchased with resimax bus bars to suit. Easy and neat install." — Jack
"Good product and additional bus connect good." — Maurice
"Easy to install and good quality." — Glenb
(RCBE22030S)
Yes. The RCBE220/30S complies with AS/NZS 61009 and is approved for use in domestic installations under the National Electrical Code (AS/NZS 3000). The device meets the requirements for Type A earth-leakage protection at 30mA sensitivity. Installation must be carried out by a licensed electrician and the circuit must be protected by a 20A MCB or RCD at the main switchboard.
The RCBE220/30S clips directly onto standard DIN rail and requires no special tools. Top and bottom connections are both supported, so the device can be installed in either orientation. Line and load terminals are non-sensitive, meaning you can install the device without rewiring the circuit if replacing an existing single-pole breaker or RCD. A licensed electrician must carry out the installation and test the circuit under AS/NZS 3017.
Yes, the RCBE220/30S combines residual current and overcurrent protection in one slimline module. If your circuit currently has a separate 30mA RCD and 20A MCB, the RCBE220/30S can replace both devices. This saves switchboard space (one module instead of two) and simplifies maintenance. Consult a licensed electrician to confirm the replacement is suitable for your circuit and load.
The RCBE220/30S is a 20A device; Clipsal also makes the RCBE210/30S (10A), RCBE216/30S (16A), RCBE225/30S (25A), and RCBE232/30S (32A), all with the same slimline 1-module design and 4.5kA breaking capacity. Choose the amperage that matches your circuit's design load. All are Resi MAX models with Type A 30mA earth-leakage protection and C-curve thermal-magnetic operation.
Clipsal provides a two-year manufacturer's warranty on the RCBE220/30S, covering manufacturing defects. The warranty applies only when the device is installed by a licensed electrician in accordance with AS/NZS 3000 and relevant building codes. Sparky Direct offers a 100-day money-back guarantee on the product itself. For in-home warranty claims, contact Clipsal directly through the authorized distributor.
No. The RCBE220/30S is rated IP20 and is designed for internal switchboards and enclosures only. It is not suitable for external walls, damp locations, bathrooms, laundries, or any area subject to splash or high humidity. If you require weatherproof RCD protection for outdoor or damp locations, consult a licensed electrician about weatherproof RCD alternatives or enclosed switchboard options.
The Clipsal RCBE220/30S 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.
