Indoors? Is the rcbo dedicated to this, or is it an up or down lights rcbo? 6A? Or something else?
I'm a bit surprised if it's a current surge, but suppose that's possible. Maybe earth leakage for some reason?
Any chance of trying a different driver, or is it a mystery bespoke setup!

It would be unusual for this type of lamps to have an earth connection, so I suspect it's an earth -neutral fault on another part of the circuit, or any circuit protected by the same RCD.
Edit: I see the OP says RCBO, so it could be inrush, but I'd IR test first.
