iID Differential 2P 40A 300mA A

The Acti9 iID 2P 40 A 300 mA Type A Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB), reference A9R24240 from Schneider Electric, is a reliable solution for protecting people and electrical equipment against electric shocks and fire hazards. This 2-pole device is designed to protect 40 A electrical circuits from earth fault currents, safely disconnecting the system if a leakage current exceeding 300 mA is detected.

This RCCB complies with the EN/IEC 61008-1 standard, ensuring high reliability and safety for residential and commercial applications. It also features a Type A protection class, meaning it can detect both alternating and pulsating leakage currents, making it ideal for modern installations that may include electronic devices.

Key Features:

• Rated current: 40 A
• Earth leakage sensitivity: 300 mA
• Protection class: Type A (detection of alternating and pulsating currents)
• Breaking capacity: 1500 A
• Conditional short-circuit current: 10 kA

The Acti9 iID incorporates VisiTrip technology, an indicator that quickly identifies the device that caused the circuit to trip, facilitating fault identification and significantly reducing intervention time. Additionally, it features VisiSafe technology, ensuring that the contacts are fully open when the switch is in the off position, guaranteeing safe disconnection for downstream maintenance without risks.

Key Technical Data:

• Operating voltage: 220-240 VAC at 50/60 Hz
• Insulation voltage (Ui): 500 VAC
• Impulse withstand voltage (Uimp): 6 kV
• Mechanical durability: 20,000 cycles
• Electrical durability: 15,000 cycles
• Overvoltage capacity: 250 A
• Mounting: On DIN rail, with adjustable clip fastening
• Connections: Terminals for rigid cables up to 35 mm² and flexible cables up to 25 mm²
• Tightening torque: 3.5 N.m

The iID RCCB is compact and easy to install, with dimensions of 91 mm height, 36 mm width, and 73.5 mm depth, allowing integration into standard modular electrical panels. Its modular design also facilitates wiring and reduces the required space, maintaining a clean and organised installation.

Additional Features:

• Contact position indicator: The switch includes a visual indicator clearly showing whether the contacts are open or closed, providing additional confirmation of the device's status.
• Lock compatibility: The device can be locked with a padlock, ensuring it cannot be accidentally operated during maintenance tasks.

Typical Applications:

The Acti9 iID 2P 40 A 300 mA Type A RCCB is suitable for use in residential, commercial, and light industrial installations where effective protection against earth leakage and electric shocks is required. It is ideal for protecting circuits powering sensitive devices such as appliances, office equipment, and lighting systems, ensuring the safety of people and preventing fire risks.

In summary, the Acti9 iID 2P 40 A 300 mA Type A RCCB from Schneider Electric offers the perfect combination of advanced protection, ease of use, and rapid diagnostics, making it a reliable and safe choice for any electrical installation. Its ability to quickly identify faults with the VisiTrip indicator, alongside the additional safety provided by VisiSafe, makes it an excellent choice for modern electrical circuit protection.
