The Schneider Electric A9TYA4240 is an Acti9 VigiARC iC60 arc-fault detection device (AFDD) combined with a 30 mA residual current device (RCD) in a single add-on block, 2-pole, rated 40 A at 230 V AC. The 40 A [In] and 30 mA sensitivity cover typical final circuits supplying socket outlets or fixed equipment in residential and light commercial installations. The Type A-SI (Super Immunised) earth-leakage class means it resists nuisance tripping from high-frequency leakage or pulsed DC waveforms common on modern electronics. Rated impulse withstand voltage is 4 kV (Uimp), insulation voltage 400 V AC (Ui), and pollution degree 2 — suitable for standard indoor panel environments. Operating temperature range is -25 to 60 °C, storage -40 to 85 °C, with tropicalisation severity B per IEC 60068-2-30 for 28 days.
Neutral is on the left. Local signalling includes ON/OFF status, a fault-trip LED, and an arc-fault diagnostic indicator. Electrical durability: 10,000 cycles above 25 A, 20,000 cycles at or below 25 A; mechanical durability 20,000 cycles. The device records date/time of events and maintenance indicators.
