Schneider Electric 8-Pin Plug-In Relay

The Schneider Electric RPM21P7 is a miniature power relay designed for control circuits that require a mechanical status indicator. It suits electricians and panel builders who need a compact DPDT switching device with a 230 V AC coil. The plug-in square base allows quick mounting on a standard socket without soldering.

Installation notes and common issues

The relay plugs directly into a compatible square socket, so wiring is limited to the socket terminals. A lockable push-to-test button lets you verify contact operation before the panel is energised. The most frequent issue is forgetting to order the matching socket separately, which leaves the relay unmountable.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

This relay fits panels that need a 15 A DPDT switch with a mechanical flag indicator and a 240 V AC coil rated at 1.1 VA. Buyers who need a different coil voltage, a higher contact rating or a non-plug-in mounting style should look at other relay families.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the mechanical flag indicator moves when the 240V AC coil is energised?

Apply 240V AC to the coil; the mechanical flag should flip visibly, confirming the relay has switched.

Which accessories are included and which must be sourced separately for the 8-pin square base?

The relay itself is supplied; a compatible Square D socket and any mounting hardware are not included.

Should I choose the 230V AC or 240V AC coil version for a 230V mains supply?

The listed coil rating is 240V AC, which is the standard rating for 230V nominal mains.
