7. Standard Mounting: DIN rail mounting with 1-module width, saving switchgear space, and compatible with Acti9 series accessories (per esempio., contatti ausiliari, alarm contacts).
8. Adattabilità ambientale: IP20 protection rating, resistant to temperatures ranging from -25℃ to 70℃, meeting the requirements of industrial and civil distribution environments.
9. Application Scope

– Overload and short-circuit protection for single-phase distribution circuits of lighting, sockets, small motors, ecc., in commercial buildings and industrial plants.

Places with high requirements for power supply reliability, such as office buildings, Hotel, and hospitals.

Compatible with Acti9 series distribution boxes, used in scenarios such as terminal power distribution and branch circuit protection.

5. Raccomandazioni per la selezione
6. Carica corrispondenza: Type C curve is suitable for non-inductive loads (per esempio., illuminazione, sockets); avoid selecting Type D (per carichi di potenza) or Type B (for electronic equipment) curves.
7. Circuit Matching: With a rated current of 6A, it is suitable for 1.5mm² copper core cables (long-term current-carrying capacity ≥ 10A), and the circuit length should be ≤ 100m.
8. Capacità di interruzione: The 6kA breaking capacity is suitable for terminal distribution; the front-end should be equipped with molded case circuit breakers with higher breaking capacity (per esempio., 15kA and above).
9. Accessory Selection: According to monitoring requirements, select accessories such as auxiliary contacts (per esempio., A9A26924) and alarm contacts (per esempio., A9A26934).

7. Soluzioni alternative

Intra-series Alternatives: A9P52610 (1P+N, 10UN, Tipo C), A9P52616 (1P+N, 16UN, Tipo C), ecc., maintaining mounting and accessory compatibility.

Cross-series Alternatives: Schneider Electric IDPN series (per esempio., A9D18606, 1P+N, 6UN, Tipo C) or ABB S200 series (per esempio., S201M‑C6, 1P+N, 6UN, Tipo C). It is necessary to verify the matching of mounting dimensions and breaking capacity.

Complete Guide to Other Models of Schneider Electric Acti9 iC40 Series

Schneider Electric Acti9 iC40 series is a miniature circuit breaker (MCB) specially designed for single-phase/three-phase distribution systems. With 1P+N as the core product, it also provides multiple pole configurations including 2P, 3P, 4P, and 3P+N. The tripping curves cover Type B/C/D, and the breaking capacity is divided into standard type (4.5kA Icn/6kA Icu) and Type N (6kA Icn/10kA Icu), with rated current covering the full range of 1A~63A.
