Detailed content
Rated Voltage (Ue): 230/400 V AC
Rated Residual Operating Current (IΔn): 30 mA (Type A — detects AC and pulsating DC residual currents)
Rated Residual Non-Operating Current (IΔn/2): 15 mA (guaranteed no-trip)
Breaking Capacity (Icm): 3 kA (conditional)
Number of Poles: 2P (230 V single-phase) / 4P (400 V three-phase) — selectable
Trip Time at IΔn: ≤ 300 ms (standard); ≤ 150 ms (S-type variant)
Rated Frequency: 50/60 Hz
Mechanical Life: 10,000 operations
Electrical Life: 4,000 operations
Connection: Screw terminal, 1–25 mm² wire capacity (top and bottom)
Mounting: 35 mm DIN rail (EN 60715)
Protection Class: IP20 (front); IP40 with cover
Operating Temperature: -25°C to +40°C (standard); -5°C to +40°C (electronic variant)
Standards: IEC 61008-1, EN 61008-1, VDE 0664
Housing Material: Polyamide 6.6, flame-retardant (UL94 V-0)
Dimensions (W × H × D): 36 mm × 85 mm × 68 mm (2-pole); 72 mm × 85 mm × 68 mm (4-pole)
Weight: 180 g (2-pole); 320 g (4-pole)
Key Features:
- Type A detects residual currents from inverter-fed loads (VFDs, UPS, EV chargers)
- Test button (T) verifies trip function monthly — presses test resistor into circuit
- Must be installed upstream of MCBs for personnel protection
- Immune to nuisance tripping from normal leakage up to IΔn/2
Applicable Industries: Residential buildings, commercial facilities, hospitals, data centers, EV charging stations
Installation Requirements:
- Install at origin of installation (main switchboard) or sub-distribution board
- Connect line (L) to top terminals, load to bottom terminals — do not reverse
- Neutral (N) must pass through RCD — do not bypass
- Tighten terminals to 2.5 Nm
Usage Notes:
- Press TEST button monthly — if breaker does not trip, replace immediately
- RCD protects persons only — does NOT protect against overcurrent or short circuit
- Must be used in combination with MCB (e.g., AEG 6728 series)
- After trip, identify and eliminate fault before resetting
