Specifications
Product description
The GAVE ACM16SDA 3.7kW 16A 30mA Single-Phase AC Protection Box is a compact panel that integrates all critical safety functions for an AC branch of up to 3.7 kW in a single enclosure. It combines circuit breaker protection, high-sensitivity residual current protection, and transient overvoltage limitation (Type II SPD), offering a professional, clean, and quick-to-install solution for connecting single-phase inverters or microinverters to the main panel of a home or small business.
Main features
- Single-phase 230 V, 1 dedicated AC circuit, continuous capacity up to 16 A (≈ 3.68 kVA/kW).
- 2P 16 A MCB, curve C, breaking capacity 6 kA for protection against overloads and short circuits.
- Type A RCD 30 mA, sensitivity for personal protection and immunity against unwanted tripping.
- Type II SPD overvoltage protection (In 20 kA, Imax 40 kA, Up 1.5 kV) to safeguard the grid interface.
- Class II enclosure (double insulation) in polycarbonate, suitable for indoor or protected outdoor use, with DIN rail.
Advantages or benefits
- Faster installation: “turnkey” panel that centralizes protections and sectioning of the PV/AC branch.
- Advanced safety: 30 mA RCD for personal protection and Type II SPD to mitigate grid transients.
- Facilitated regulatory compliance: selection of switchgear and coordination of protections in accordance with best practices.
- Simple maintenance: front access to switches and terminals, clear labeling, and streamlined wiring.
- Compact and robust design: ideal where space is limited without sacrificing selectivity with the main panel.
Purpose or applications
Designed for residential single-phase self-consumption and small commercial applications with inverters up to 3.7 kW, microinverter branches grouped at 16 A, and systems with AC-coupled batteries whose branch does not exceed the nominal current. Acts as a safe interconnection point between generation/backup and the main panel, both in installations with grid export and in configurations with export limitation.
