A9Y83625 SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC

The A9Y83625 is an add-on residual current device (RCD) from the Schneider Electric Acti9 Vigi iC40 series, designed to enhance electrical safety in residential and commercial applications. This device is a 1P+N (one pole plus neutral) configuration, making it suitable for single-phase electrical systems. It has a rated current of 25A, indicating the maximum current it can handle continuously without tripping. The RCD is designed to detect residual currents, also known as earth leakage currents, with a sensitivity of 300mA. This sensitivity level provides a balance between protection against electrical shock and nuisance tripping. The A9Y83625 is an AC type RCD, meaning it is designed to detect and respond to alternating current faults. It is typically used in conjunction with a miniature circuit breaker (MCB) to provide comprehensive protection against both overcurrent and residual current faults. By adding this RCD to an existing MCB, users can ensure a higher level of safety for electrical circuits and connected equipment. The Acti9 Vigi iC40 series is known for its reliability and ease of installation, making it a popular choice among electricians and electrical contractors.
