Product details

It carries a 16 A rated current (C-curve) and a 10 mA earth-leakage sensitivity, with a 6 kA breaking capacity at 400/415 V. The thermal-magnetic trip unit handles both overload and short-circuit protection, while the integrated earth-leakage module catches ground faults down to 10 mA. That sensitivity level is typically specified for circuits where additional protection against electric shock is required — think socket outlets in wet areas or circuits supplying portable equipment.

The unit occupies 6 x 9 mm pitches (54 mm width) on the rail. Neutral is on the left, with screw-clamp terminals accepting 1...25 mm² rigid cable. The IP20 enclosure means it's suited for installation inside a distribution board or enclosure, not for wet or outdoor locations without additional protection. Padlockable with a 4 mm padlock for lockout/tagout procedures.

Certified to AS/NZS 61009.1, the Australian/New Zealand standard for RCBOs. Rated for TN earthing systems and AC networks at 50/60 Hz. Limitation class 3 indicates good current-limiting performance, reducing let-through energy on faults.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of the A9DC5916?

The breaking capacity is 6000 A Icn at 400/415 V, which is the standard rating for this RCBO frame size.

What earth-leakage sensitivity does the A9DC5916 have?

The integrated earth-leakage protection is set at 10 mA sensitivity, suitable for circuits requiring additional shock protection.
