[QUOTE="Fleeting, post: 515087, member: 33702"] It would be a close call between a type C 6A and a type B 10A on the lower threshold for instantaneous tripping, the type C would be 30A at ×5In, the type B would be 30A at ×3 In. The upper threshold however is different where the type C would be 60A at ×10 In, the type B would be 50A at ×5 In. These are generic figures however and some manufactured tolerances may be tighter. I see plenty of commercial LED lighting happily running on type B 10As but again driver characteristics can play a part. I wouldn't be losing too much sleep over the Zs as the rcbo will provide fault protection and satisfy Regulation 411.4.5. [/QUOTE]
