HAGER WAS1261WG SCHUKO Socket Outlet with RCD, Type A, 16 A, 30 mA, Polar White

Electrical installations in residential and commercial buildings often require residual current protection to prevent electric shocks and fire hazards. The HAGER WAS1261WG integrates a SCHUKO socket outlet with a built-in residual current device (RCD), providing protection directly at the point of use without the need for a separate RCD in the distribution board.

Who is it for

This socket outlet is intended for electricians and installers who need to upgrade existing installations or equip new circuits with additional RCD protection. It is particularly useful in older buildings where the distribution board lacks RCD protection, or in areas where a dedicated protected circuit is required, such as bathrooms, kitchens, or outdoor areas (when installed in a suitable enclosure).

Main features

• Integrated RCD Type A (AC and pulsating DC sensitive) with 30 mA residual current rating.
• Rated current 16 A, suitable for standard household and office loads.

• Polar white (RAL 9010) thermoplastic, halogen-free housing.
• Test button and status indicator for regular function checks.
• Complies with DIN VDE 0664-10 and EN 61008-1.
