The Schneider Electric TeSys GV2P05KD09B7 is a direct on-line motor starter combining a contactor and thermal-magnetic overload relay in a single 45 mm wide package. It is rated for 1 A line current and delivers 0.25 kW at 400/415 V AC or 0.55 kW at 690 V AC, making it suited for small motor loads like fans, pumps, and conveyors in control panels. The 24 V AC coil is standard for this variant, and the unit clips onto 35 mm symmetrical DIN rail or mounts with two M4 screws. The rotary knob provides manual on/off/reset control without opening the panel door.
The 1 A line rated current is the continuous thermal rating — this governs the maximum motor full-load current the starter can carry without tripping. For a 0.25 kW motor at 400 V, this is a direct match; oversizing would lose overload protection resolution. The magnetic tripping current is set at 13 A, providing instantaneous short-circuit protection that clears fast on bolted faults while riding through normal motor inrush.
Screw-clamp terminals accept 1 to 6 mm² solid or 1.5 to 6 mm² flexible wire without ferrules, or 1 to 4 mm² with ferrules. Tighten to 1.7 N·m — no special tooling needed beyond a standard screwdriver.
The TeSys range is widely cross-referenced in OEM BOMs and MRO spares lists.
