The Schneider Electric A9C15030 is a 1-pole contactor from the Acti9 iCT+ series, designed for remote-controlled switching of control circuits in residential and small commercial installations. Rated operational current is 20 A in both AC-7A (resistive/inductive lighting loads) and AC-7B (motorized loads) categories, with a maximum switching power of 3.6 kW at 250 V AC. Electrical and mechanical durability are each rated at 5,000,000 cycles, giving this component a long service life in frequently switched circuits like lighting groups or small motor starters.
The 18 mm width (one modular pitch) means it slots into an existing row without crowding adjacent breakers or busbars. Depth is 60 mm and height 81 mm, so it sits flush in a standard enclosure without protruding past the front cover. IP20 on the body, IP40 in a modular enclosure — suitable for clean, dry indoor panels.
For BOM freeze or new design-ins, this part is specified-to-order against an RFQ. No known direct replacement from Schneider; if a second-source is needed, the parametric match must match the 20 A AC-7A/B rating and 1P form factor.
The 20 A rating in AC-7A covers resistive and inductive lighting loads (e.g., incandescent, halogen, or LED drivers with inrush). AC-7B extends to small motor loads like fans or pumps — so this one contactor handles both lighting and motorized circuits in a single panel. Pollution degree 3 (IEC 60664-1) means it tolerates conductive pollution in typical residential and commercial environments — no special sealing needed for normal dust or humidity up to 95% at 55 °C. Switching frequency is 6 operations per minute, adequate for most lighting and small motor control; not intended for high-speed cycling like a PLC output.
