III. Caractéristiques fonctionnelles de base
- Dual Overvoltage/Undervoltage Protection
Protection contre les surtensions: Automatically disconnects the circuit when voltage exceeds 275V (±10V) to prevent electrical appliances from being damaged by overvoltage.
Protection contre les sous-tensions: Automatically disconnects the circuit when voltage is lower than 170V (±10V) to avoid burnout of motors and other equipment due to undervoltage overload.
Graded Time Delay: Automatically adjusts tripping time according to the degree of overvoltage/undervoltage to improve protection accuracy.
- Automatic Reclosing Function
Automatically recloses after voltage returns to normal without manual intervention.
Maximum reclosing attempt limit (3 fois) to prevent frequent reclosing when faults persist.
Reclosing interval is about 1 minute to ensure circuit stability before reconnection.
- Safety Design Highlights
Fault Lockout: Automatically locks in the open position after 3 failed reclosing attempts, requiring manual reset.
Test Button: Manually tests whether the protection function is normal to ensure equipment reliability.
Arc-free Design: No arc ejection during breaking, improving operational safety.
Cooperative Operation with MCB: Must be installed downstream of MCB to utilize MCB for short-circuit and overload protection.
- Installation and Application Key Points
- Exigences d'installation
Emplacement d'installation: Must be installed downstream of the miniature circuit breaker (MCB) as a secondary protection device.
Méthode de câblage: Strictly distinguish phase line (L) and neutral line (N), with clear markings on wiring terminals.
Instructions d'installation: Vertically installed on 35mm standard DIN rail, with wiring available at both upper and lower ends.
Conditions environnementales: Install in a well-ventilated and dry place, avoiding humidity, dust and corrosive gases.
- Scénarios d'application
| Application Field | Typical Usage |
| Residential Power Distribution | Main distribution box of households, protecting air conditioners, réfrigérateurs, TVs and other household appliances from voltage fluctuation damage |
| Bâtiments commerciaux | Offices, shops, hotel guest rooms, etc., protecting computers, printers and other office equipment |
| Small-scale Industry | Control circuits of single-phase equipment, protecting PLC, frequency converters and other precision electronic devices |
| Photovoltaic Systems | Front end of single-phase grid-connected inverters, protecting inverters from grid voltage fluctuations |
- Recommended Supporting Equipment
MCB Matching: It is recommended to use Schneider Easy9 series EZ9F53263 (2P 63A C-curve, pouvoir de coupure 6kA).
Distribution Box: Easy9 series compact distribution box with IP43 protection class, suitable for rail mounting.
Wiring Terminals: Use copper lugs for connection to ensure good contact and reduce heating risk.
- Sélection et solutions alternatives
- Points clés de la sélection
Confirm circuit type: Only applicable to 230VAC single-phase circuits; other models should be selected for three-phase circuits.
Match load current: Rated current ≥ maximum load current; 63A is recommended for residential main protection.
Use with MCB: Must be used in conjunction with MCB and cannot be used alone as a circuit protection device.
- Alternative Model Reference
| Demand Scenario | Modèle recommandé | Difference Description |
| No Reclosing Required | EZ9C1163 | Only overvoltage/undervoltage protection, without automatic reclosing function |
| 40A Rated Current | EZ9C1240 | Suitable for branch circuit protection with small load current |
| Integrated Leakage Protection | EA9ZGQ263 | Integrated design of overvoltage/undervoltage + protection contre les fuites + automatic reclosing |

- Fault Diagnosis and Maintenance
| Phénomène de défaut | Causes possibles | Troubleshooting Methods |
| Déclenchements fréquents | Large grid voltage fluctuations; low setting value; abnormal load | Check grid quality; adjust setting value; troubleshoot load faults |
| No Action | Wiring error; power supply failure; relay damage | Verify wiring diagram; check power supply; replace the relay |
| Reclosing Failure | Persistent faults; exceeded reclosing attempt limit | Troubleshoot circuit faults; manually reset before reconnection |
| Abnormal Heating | Câblage lâche; load overload; excessively high ambient temperature | Tighten wiring; check load; improve ventilation conditions |
Résumé
Schneider EZ9C1263 is an overvoltage/undervoltage relay specially designed for 230VAC single-phase circuits. Its core advantage lies in the automatic reclosing function, which can automatically restore power supply after voltage returns to normal, improving the convenience of electricity use. As a member of the Easy9 series, its compact design, DIN rail mounting and high reliability make it an ideal choice for protecting precision electronic equipment in residential and small-scale commercial buildings. It should be noted that this product is not a miniature circuit breaker and must be used in conjunction with MCB to achieve complete short-circuit, overload and voltage protection functions.
