Product overview
People Electric RDL6-40 combines residual-current, overload and short-circuit protection in a compact single-phase 1P+N device. Its electromagnetic residual-current mechanism and thermal-magnetic release must match the required waveform sensitivity, current and trip curve.
Technical selection summary
| Manufacturer / series | Original People Electric RDL6-40 |
|---|---|
| Published main-circuit version | AC240V, 1P+N, single-phase; 50/60Hz. The original nameplate shows 240V and the table includes the 240/415V system designation. |
| Rated current | 6, 10, 16, 20, 25, 32, 40A |
| Thermal-magnetic curve | B or C |
| Residual waveform type | A or AC |
| Residual sensitivity | 30, 100, 300mA |
| Residual mechanism | Electromagnetic, as stated in the application section |
| Rated short-circuit capacity | Icn 4500A |
| Residual break time | ≤0.1s under the source IΔn test condition; coordinate the protection design to the actual duty |
| Pole arrangement | 1P+N. Do not interpret the catalogue 400/415V system notation as a universal line-to-line rating for this published single-phase version. |
| Electrical / mechanical life | 2,000 operations each, as tabulated |
| Mounting / connection | 35mm DIN rail EN 60715 with fast clip; cable, pin busbar or U-type busbar connections |
| Outline reference | 18mm module width; original dimension drawing includes 82.5mm height and 66.4mm body depth plus the indicated rear projection. Confirm exact mounting clearance from drawing. |
| Standard stated | IEC/EN 61009; original product label states IEC 61009-1 |
This page offers the 240V single-phase nameplate version; confirm any different voltage requirement rather than selecting a higher system voltage from the shared table. Type A/AC describes residual waveform sensitivity and is distinct from the B/C thermal-magnetic curve. Specify both in the enquiry.
Typical applications
- Single-phase distribution requiring combined overcurrent and residual-current protection.
- Replacement compact 1P+N RCBOs requiring exact voltage, current, curve and sensitivity matching.

For a focused quotation, include:
- AC240V single-phase version, rated current, B/C curve, Type A/AC and residual sensitivity.
- Prospective fault current, upstream coordination and required installation clearance.
- Quantity, destination and any exact regional voltage/version requirement.
