Upgrading a circuit from 40 A to 63 A in a workshop

A 40 A circuit upgraded to 63 A: a cable of suitable cross-section and a new 63 A residual current switch.

01

The starting point

In a sewing workshop in Paris, a 40 A circuit on the electrical board had to be upgraded to 63 A.

02

Our work

Supply isolated, cable replaced with a cross-section suited to 63 A, 40 A residual current switch replaced with a 63 A one, connected, then put back into service.

03

The result

A 63 A circuit, with cable and protection sized accordingly, and the board closed and back in service.

The project in detail

In a Paris sewing workshop, a 40 A circuit on the electrical board had to be upgraded to 63 A.

Changing the device alone is not enough: the cable must be sized for the current it carries. After isolating the supply, we therefore replaced the cable with one of suitable cross-section, then replaced the 40 A residual current switch with a 63 A model. Once connected, the board was closed and put back into service.
