The Schneider A9L15692 is an Acti 9 iPF K modular surge arrester designed for electrical distribution networks. This 1P+N Type 2 device is suitable for TN-S and TT earthing systems and provides surge protection for 230 V AC installations operating at 50/60 Hz. It uses MOV + GDT technology and offers a nominal discharge current of 5 kA, with a maximum discharge current of 20 kA across common and differential modes.
Built for DIN rail mounting, the A9L15692 has a compact 4-module format measuring 81 x 36 x 69 mm and weighs approximately 210 g. It features clip-on installation, tunnel terminals for rigid and flexible conductors, and front-face IP40 protection. The device supports a maximum continuous operating voltage of 340 V in L/PE and L/N modes, with voltage protection levels down to 1.1 kV in differential mode.
This surge arrester is commonly used in low-voltage distribution boards to help protect connected electrical equipment from transient overvoltages caused by switching events or atmospheric disturbances. It is compliant with IEC 61643-11:2011 and carries CE and EAC certifications, making it a practical choice for commercial and industrial power protection applications.
