Specifications

Maximum leakage current, each Line to Ground:
    VK Models EK Models
  @ 120 VAC 60 Hz .5 mA .21 mA
  @ 250 VAC 50 Hz 1.0 mA .36 mA
     
Hipot rating (one minute):
  Line to Ground 2250 VDC
  Line to Line 1450 VDC
     
Operating Frequency: 50 / 60 Hz
     
Rated voltage (max.): 250 VAC
     
Rated Current: 1A to 60A
  20VK7 VDE approved to 16 Amps
Operating Ambient Temperature Range (at rated current Ir):
    -10°C to +40°C
In an ambient temperature (Ta) higher than +40°C
the maximum operating current (Io) is calculated as
follows: Io = Ir √(85-Ta)/45
