Siemens 2-pole Type A 30 mA RCD with Type C overload characteristic, 13 A rated current, 6 kA breaking capacity, 24-month warranty for industrial and residential distribution boards.
Siemens FI/LS 2P 2TE 6kA Typ A 30mA C13 – Compact Residual-Current Circuit Breaker for Industrial and Residential Panels
The Siemens FI/LS 2P 2TE 6kA Typ A 30mA C13 is a two-pole residual-current circuit breaker designed for installation in distribution boards and switch cabinets. It combines overload protection (LS, Type C characteristic) with earth-leakage protection (FI, Type A) in a single compact device rated at 13 A.
Type A residual-current detection provides reliable protection against AC and pulsating DC fault currents, covering a broad range of potential earth-fault scenarios
Type C trip characteristic ensures stable operation under normal inrush currents from motors and transformers while tripping reliably during fault conditions
30 mA sensitivity delivers fast disconnection to reduce the risk of electric shock and fire caused by ground faults
6 kA short-circuit breaking capacity ensures safe operation even in installations with higher prospective fault currents
Das zeichnet den Siemens FI/LS 2P 2TE aus
The combination of Type A and Type C characteristics in a single 2-pole device simplifies panel design by replacing two separate devices with one compact unit. The 13 A rated current and 24-month manufacturer warranty make it suitable for both new-build and retrofit distribution boards in commercial and residential settings.
Ideal für...
Electrical installers and panel builders working on industrial control cabinets, commercial building distribution boards, and residential switchgear where Type A RCD protection is required alongside Type C overload characteristics. Particularly suited for circuits feeding motors, transformers, or other inductive loads where inrush currents are a consideration.
Anwendung von Siemens FI/LS 2P 2TE 6kA Typ A 30mA C13
Install the device in a DIN rail-mounted distribution board or switch cabinet according to the relevant electrical installation standards
Connect the two poles to the respective phase conductors and the neutral conductor as per the wiring diagram
Verify the 30 mA trip threshold and Type C characteristic match the protected circuit requirements before energising
Periodically test the residual-current function using the built-in test button to ensure continued operational readiness
Siemens is a global technology company headquartered in Munich, Germany, with a long history in electrical engineering and automation. The brand is widely recognised for industrial, infrastructure, and building technology products. Its circuit-breaker and switchgear range is one of the most comprehensive in the industry, covering residential, commercial, and industrial applications with a strong emphasis on safety and reliability.
It is a two-pole residual-current circuit breaker that combines earth-leakage protection (FI, Type A) with overload protection (LS, Type C characteristic) in a single device rated at 13 A and 6 kA breaking capacity.
Type A detects both sinusoidal AC and pulsating DC residual currents, providing protection against a wider range of earth-fault scenarios than standard Type AC devices, including those involving electronic loads and DC components.
2 poles, 13 A rated current, Type A FI sensitivity 30 mA, Type C LS trip characteristic, 6 kA short-circuit breaking capacity, 24-month manufacturer warranty.
Mount on a standard DIN rail inside a distribution board or switch cabinet. Connect the two poles to the phase conductors and the neutral conductor according to the applicable wiring standards and the device terminal markings.
The 24-month manufacturer warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship under normal operating conditions. It does not cover damage caused by incorrect installation, overcurrent beyond the rated breaking capacity, or external factors.
