Schneider Electric Acti9 Vigi iC60 RCD Add-On Module

Overview

The Schneider Electric Acti9 Vigi iC60 RCD Add-On Module is a residual current device that clips directly onto an existing Acti9 iC60 miniature circuit breaker, converting a standard MCB into a combined overcurrent and earth-fault protection device without replacing the breaker itself. For panel builders across Oman and the GCC, the Vigi iC60 module offers a cost-effective way to add RCD protection to selected circuits within a distribution board already populated with iC60 breakers.

As the official authorized partner and exclusive regional representative for Schneider Electric, Seven Star LLC proudly supplies the Schneider Electric Acti9 Vigi iC60 RCD Add-On Module add-on residual current module for iC60 circuit breakers to industrial, commercial, and utility customers across the Sultanate of Oman and the wider GCC. Every unit shipped from our Muscat-based facility is genuine Schneider Electric stock, backed by manufacturer warranty, full technical documentation, and local application support, giving panel builders and facility engineers in Oman confidence that their add-on residual current module for iC60 circuit breakers investment is protected from procurement through commissioning.

Operating Principle

The Vigi iC60 module contains its own toroidal current transformer that monitors the vector sum of current flowing through the associated iC60 breaker’s poles once fitted. When leakage current to earth exceeds the module’s rated sensitivity, the Vigi module trips the mechanically coupled iC60 breaker, opening all poles just as an integrated RCBO would, but using a physically separate add-on assembly.

Because the Schneider Electric Vigi iC60 attaches mechanically and electrically to a specific iC60 breaker frame size and pole configuration, panel builders can selectively add earth-fault protection only to the circuits that require it, leaving other iC60 breakers on the same board as standard overcurrent-only devices. This selective approach reduces the cost of upgrading a distribution board’s protection scheme compared with replacing every relevant breaker with a full RCBO.

Engineering Design of the Schneider Electric Vigi iC60

The Vigi iC60 module is designed to clip onto the side of a compatible iC60 breaker using a mechanical coupling that ensures the RCD trip mechanism reliably operates the breaker’s own trip bar. Test buttons on the Vigi module allow routine functional testing of the residual current sensing circuit without needing to access the breaker itself.

Sensitivity options on the Schneider Electric Vigi iC60 range from high-sensitivity settings suited to personnel protection down to higher thresholds intended for equipment or fire protection applications, letting the same base module family serve multiple protection philosophies across a distribution board. The module’s compact width adds minimal extra space to the panel compared with the breaker alone.

Key Features

The Schneider Electric Acti9 Vigi iC60 RCD Add-On Module is built around design priorities that matter most to residual current add-on protection specifiers in Oman and the GCC:

• The Vigi iC60 module clips directly onto compatible Acti9 iC60 breakers to add residual current protection.
• Selective fitting allows earth-fault protection to be added only to circuits that require it.
• A mechanical coupling ensures reliable tripping of the host breaker on a detected earth fault.
• Integrated test buttons support routine functional verification of the residual current circuit.
• Multiple sensitivity options cover both personnel protection and equipment protection applications.
• Compact add-on width minimizes additional panel space compared with the breaker alone.
• Compatibility with the wide Acti9 iC60 breaker range simplifies stock and specification.
• Lower cost than full RCBO replacement makes selective board upgrades more economical.

Industrial Applications

The Schneider Electric Acti9 Vigi iC60 RCD Add-On Module is specified in distribution boards across Oman’s commercial and residential developments where earth-fault protection needs to be added to specific circuits within an existing iC60 breaker layout without a full board redesign. Electrical contractors in Muscat use the Vigi iC60 range extensively during panel modifications and code-compliance upgrades on existing installations.

As the officially authorized partner for Schneider Electric in the region, Seven Star LLC distributes the Schneider Electric Acti9 Vigi iC60 RCD Add-On Module to panel builders, MEP contractors, and plant operators throughout Muscat, Sohar, and Salalah, supporting district cooling plants, RO desalination facilities, oil and gas installations, commercial towers, and hospital complexes across the GCC. Our regional stock holding and technical team mean that specifiers in Oman can source the Schneider Electric Acti9 Vigi iC60 RCD Add-On Module with the same lead time and support levels as a domestic supplier, without the customs delay and warranty ambiguity of grey-market imports.
