Key Features

• 63A Rated Current: The A9V44263 add-on block is designed for 63A circuits, making it suitable for medium-power systems, commonly found in residential, commercial, and some industrial environments.

• 300mA Sensitivity: With a 300mA residual current sensitivity, this add-on block is ideal for applications where higher leakage current tolerance is necessary, such as industrial machinery or large appliances.

• Type AC Detection: Designed to detect sinusoidal alternating currents, making it effective in AC electrical systems commonly found in most installations.

• Instantaneous Tripping: The device provides immediate disconnection when leakage current exceeds the set threshold, minimizing the risk of electrical hazards.

• 2-Pole Configuration: The 2-pole design is suitable for single-phase or two-phase systems, providing essential protection for those installations.

• Easy Integration: The add-on block integrates seamlessly with iC60 circuit breakers, making it easy to upgrade existing electrical systems to include earth leakage protection.

• Test Button: The test button allows users to check the functionality of the device and ensure that it will disconnect the circuit if leakage currents exceed the threshold.

• Compact Design: The add-on block is compact and mounts on a DIN rail, optimizing space within electrical panels.

Applications

The Schneider A9V44263 is ideal for various residential, commercial, and industrial applications, particularly where higher leakage currents might be expected or allowed. Key applications include:

Residential Installations

• Offers essential earth leakage protection for home electrical circuits, ensuring safety from electrical shock risks and fire hazards, especially in kitchens, bathrooms, or wet areas.

Commercial Installations

• Suitable for shops, offices, and small businesses, where the risk of leakage currents exists but high sensitivity is not necessary. This add-on block is an effective choice for general commercial electrical systems.

Industrial Installations

• The 300mA sensitivity makes this add-on block ideal for industrial settings where larger leakage currents are common, such as with heavy machinery, power tools, or large equipment.

Electrical Distribution Panels

• Ideal for use in distribution boards or control panels that need to incorporate residual current protection in single-phase or two-phase systems.
