Product details

It's a 3P+N block rated for 40 A continuous current and 30 mA earth-leakage sensitivity, tripping instantaneously — no intentional delay, so it's for group incomer or sub-distribution where you want fast fault clearing, not selectivity with downstream RCDs.

Voltage-independent tripping means the RCD doesn't need a separate power supply or the line voltage to operate; it uses the fault current itself to trigger the mechanism, so it works even if the neutral is lost upstream. That's a reliability advantage for group incomers where you can't count on the supply being clean during a fault. The 4 kV impulse withstand is standard for this class per EN/IEC 61009-2-1. That's standard for a DIN-rail mounted RCD in a distribution board — not a switching device for frequent load cycling, but fine for its role as a protective device that mostly sits closed.

Clip-on mounting on DIN rail, 108 mm wide (6 x 9 mm pitches), 99.5 mm high, 74 mm deep. Neutral is on the left. IP20 on the body, IP40 inside the modular enclosure — fine for a distribution board, not for washdown.

Frequently asked questions

What is the A9Y70740 used for?

It's an add-on residual current device (RCD) for group incomer or sub-distribution applications in 3P+N circuits up to 40 A, providing 30 mA Type A earth-leakage protection with instantaneous tripping.

Where can I buy the A9Y70740?

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

What compliance documentation does the A9Y70740 have?

It complies with EN/IEC 61009-2-1 and carries an IMQ quality label. Pollution degree 3 is conforming to that same standard.
