56173 ā Schneider Electric RH99M Earth-Leakage Relay (Manual Reset, 240 V)
The Schneider Electric 56173 is the RH99M earth-leakage relay designed to provide sensitive ground fault protection in low-voltage electrical installations. It features manual reset capability, making it ideal for controlled environments where fault acknowledgment and corrective actions are supervised. The relay offers a detection range of 0.03 to 30 A and an adjustable trip delay from 0 to 4.5 seconds, allowing it to be precisely configured for selective protection and system stability.
This model operates on 240 V AC and ensures safe disconnection in case of leakage currents, thereby preventing electrical shock hazards and equipment damage.
