Product details

The Schneider Electric A9R50240S is an Acti9 iID K residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) — a 2-pole, 40 A, 30 mA sensitivity Type AC device for 220-240 V AC networks.

The 30 mA earth-leakage sensitivity is the standard threshold for personal protection against indirect contact — it trips on fault currents above that level, fast enough to prevent ventricular fibrillation per IEC 60364. The 40 A rated current matches the upstream MCB or the load's full-load ampacity; oversizing the RCCB relative to the load leaves the breaker as the overcurrent device, not this part. Voltage-independent tripping means the RCCB does not need a separate power supply to open on a residual fault — the fault current itself energizes the trip coil. That makes it fail-safe in a lost-neutral scenario where an electronic RCCB might not operate.

Tunnel-type terminals accept 1-35 mm² rigid or 1-25 mm² flexible cable. Wire strip length is 16 mm. Neutral is on the left. IP20 on the terminals, IP40 inside the modular enclosure.

Frequently asked questions

What is the A9R50240S used for?

It is a residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) for earth-leakage protection in AC circuits. Use it as an outgoing feeder device in distribution boards to protect against indirect contact and fire risk from earth faults.

What does Type AC mean on this RCCB?

Type AC means it detects sinusoidal AC residual currents only. It is the standard type for general-purpose circuits without electronic loads that produce pulsed or smooth DC fault currents.

Where can I buy the A9R50240S?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.
