Product details

The Schneider Electric A9V16440 is an Acti9 Vigi iC60 add-on residual current device block — a 4-pole, 40 A, 500 mA sensitivity Type AC unit that clips onto the outgoing side of an iC60 MCB to provide earth-leakage protection in a single-module width. It is voltage-independent, meaning the residual current tripping mechanism operates without needing a separate power supply, and it carries an instantaneous trip characteristic. The part is now classified as obsolete by the manufacturer.

The 40 A rated current (In) matches the iC60 MCB it attaches to. The 500 mA sensitivity is a high-threshold setting — suited for circuits where nuisance tripping from normal leakage must be avoided, rather than for personnel protection. Type AC detection responds to sinusoidal AC residual currents only.

Clip-on mounting to DIN rail, occupying 7 x 9 mm pitches (135 mm width). The block connects to the MCB via screws on the bottom terminals, which accept 1 to 35 mm² rigid cable or 1 to 25 mm² flexible with or without ferrules.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest alternative to A9V16440 in the Vigi iC60 family?

No official successor order code is listed in the lifecycle record. A functionally similar Vigi iC60 add-on block with the same 4P, 40 A, 500 mA, Type AC ratings may exist in the current Acti9 range, but pin-compatibility and mounting dimensions must be verified against the specific panel layout since the A9V16440 is obsolete.

What compliance documentation does Schneider provide for A9V16440?

The A9V16440 is certified to EN/IEC 61009-1 and EN/IEC 61009-2-1 (RCD standards), and IEC 60947-2 for impulse withstand and pollution degree. The rated impulse withstand voltage is 6 kV. Compliance documentation such as RoHS and REACH declarations is typically available from Schneider Electric's product documentation portal for the Acti9 range.
