Product details

The Schneider Electric A9Z31491 is a 4-pole Acti9 iID residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) rated for 100 A continuous current with 30 mA earth-leakage sensitivity. It is a voltage-independent, instantaneous-trip device — meaning it does not need an external power supply to detect a fault and will clear a ground leak the moment it exceeds 30 mA. That 30 mA threshold is the standard for personal shock protection in most residential and light-commercial panels (IEC 60364 specifies 30 mA for socket-outlet circuits). The Type A-SI (Super Immunised) designation means it handles pulsed DC fault currents from electronics (switch-mode supplies, VFDs, LED drivers) without nuisance tripping from high-frequency leakage, while still tripping on the 50/60 Hz AC residual.

Rated operational voltage is 380...415 V AC at 50/60 Hz, which covers the common three-phase 400 V line-to-line supply across Europe and much of Asia. The 10 kA rated conditional short-circuit current (SCCR) means the RCCB can withstand a fault up to 10 kA without rupturing, provided an upstream overcurrent device (MCB or fuse) clears the fault within its let-through rating — standard for a distribution board fed from a 100 A or smaller transformer. Insulation voltage (Ui) is 500 V AC, and impulse withstand (Uimp) is 6 kV, which is the typical coordination level for a Type 2 surge arrester downstream. Mechanical durability is 20,000 cycles; electrical durability under AC-1 resistive load is 10,000 cycles. For a fixed-installation RCCB that is not switched daily, that is a lifetime rating — the part will outlast the panel's service life in normal use. The 8/20 µs impulse withstand of 3,000 A confirms it survives surge events from nearby lightning or switching transients without damage.

Clip-on mounting to a 35 mm DIN rail, 4-pole wide (72 mm width, 8 x 9 mm pitches).

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest alternative to A9Z31491?

Within the Acti9 iID range, the 4P 100 A 30 mA Type A (non-SI) variant is the closest functional peer. The difference is the Type A-SI adds immunity to high-frequency leakage currents from electronics, so if your load includes VFDs, UPS, or LED drivers, the A9Z31491 is the correct choice to avoid nuisance tripping. For purely resistive or linear loads, the standard Type A may suffice.

What compliance documentation does Schneider provide for A9Z31491?

The RCCB is certified to EN/IEC 61008-1 and EN/IEC 61008-2-1. The manufacturer provides a Declaration of Conformity covering the Low Voltage Directive and EMC Directive; RoHS and REACH compliance statements are available on request. No UL listing is standard for this European-market part.

Where can I buy A9Z31491 and how is it quoted?

This part is sourced through independent distribution channels. Submit an RFQ for current pricing and availability; volume purchases are quoted per your required quantity and delivery timeline.
