Hager in Malaysia: RCCBs, RCBOs, surge protectors and DB boxes, the 10mA water-heater route, and where to buy

Hager is one of the three names Malaysian electricians mention first when asked for the best breaker brand, alongside Schneider and ABB. In Malaysia it’s represented by Hager Engineering (M) Sdn Bhd in Shah Alam, and Hager’s Malaysian website has an online catalogue of what Hager offers here at hager.com/my. Each product page shows the ratings, linked documents and, for some older models, a status such as “Spare part” or “Obsolete”.

What its researched ranges are for

So far we’ve researched Hager’s residual-current devices, the part of a home board that protects against earth leakage (as of 6 October 2026), its surge protectors and its small distribution boards (as of 8 October 2026).

RCCBs. Hager Malaysia lists 63 RCCBs at 10, 30, 100, 300 and 500mA, in Type AC and Type A, including high-immunity (HI) and time-delayed (S) versions. Four are 10mA for water-heater circuits: CC216B (16A, Type AC), CC225B (25A, Type AC), CCA225B (25A, Type A) and CCA540D (40A, Type A), all 2-pole devices. Hager titles some of its RCCBs “2P” and others “1P+N”, but the specification tables give the same answer for both: “Type of pole 1P+N, Number of poles 2”. The Hager RCCB page explains this and what Hager’s documents say about voltage independence.

RCBOs. Hager Malaysia’s RCBO list has 15 models, all 30mA Type AC: eight 2-module 1P+N AD9xxB models at 6kA, and seven 1-module 1P ADC28x models at 10kA. Its 10mA RCBO pages (ACC225P, AC916B, AC966B and others) sit outside the list and are marked spare part or obsolete. So for a water heater, Hager’s current route is a 10mA RCCB plus an MCB, not an RCBO. Hager Malaysia’s FAQ frames it the same way, saying a 10mA RCCB is mandatory for water-heater protection. Energy Commission rules also accept a 10mA RCBO; Hager’s current list just doesn’t have one.

Surge protectors. Hager Malaysia’s SPD range is the plug-in SPL family with replaceable cartridges: Type 2 models at 20, 40 and 65kA in single-phase (1P+N) and three-phase (3P+N) versions, and Type 1+2 models (SPL212R, SPL412R). Its SPD category lists 17 products, and four more pages outside it are marked spare part or obsolete. Hager Malaysia lists its 40kA models only with a remote contact (SPL240R, SPL440R), while sellers mostly offer the plain SPL240 and SPL440 from Hager Malaysia’s 2022 SPD brochure, which have no Malaysian product page. The Hager SPD page covers the replacement cartridges, where Hager’s own pages contradict each other, and seller prices.

DB boxes. Hager Malaysia’s small distribution boards include the steel IU boards, 14 surface boards 13 or 18 modules wide with one to six rows, and the plastic golf boards, flush (VF) or surface (VS) from 8 to 72 modules. Both are IP40 on Hager’s pages. The steel IU is protection class I, so the box must be earthed; golf is class II. Most of the transparent-door golf versions are now marked spare part.

The RCCB, RCBO, SPD and DB box category pages compare these ranges with Schneider’s, Maxguard’s and other brands’, and our water heater guide covers the 10mA and 2-pole rules.

What Malaysian electricians say

In Malaysian wiring groups, Hager sits in the premium tier with Schneider and ABB, named first in nearly every “which brand?” thread. Between those three, preferences are personal: one commenter compared Schneider versus Hager to choosing between a Mercedes and a BMW. In a 2020 thread asking “Maxguard, EPS or Hager?”, most replies put Hager first. The practical differences people raise are price and availability; one electrician noted that Hager is sold only by some shops. These are opinions from group threads, not product tests. Our guide to what electricians say about breaker brands has the wider picture, including the repeated advice that any reputable brand with the right rating and the ST-SIRIM label will do.

JKR’s Electrical Material Approved List (eMAL) for government projects includes Hager RCCBs, recorded as made in France, and Hager MCBs, with entries made in China, France and India. Budget brands such as Maxguard and EPS are on the same lists.

How to buy Hager

These are the routes we checked. A listing shows what a seller advertises, not confirmed stock.

Edaran (Edaran Eleknas Sdn Bhd), Taman Sungai Besi, Kuala Lumpur, lists the 10mA Type A CCA225B at RM196.30 on its own site, with a Hager category of 2- and 4-pole RCCBs. Phone 03-7980 0398.
KVC, an electrical distributor, lists CC225B with prices for signed-in accounts.
Win Mah in Air Itam, Penang (+6012-493 9412), has an enquiry page for Hager 2-pole RCCBs with 10mA options.
Shopee and Lazada. Pentagon Electric Mart, Edaran, Combi Electric and CPE Electrical list several Hager RCCB codes. In October 2026 the 10mA Hager RCCBs were RM167.20–330 in the listings we found.

Hager’s RCCBs sit at the top of the price range at the same nominal rating. At 2-pole 25A 10mA Type AC, a Hager CC225B was listed at RM215–253.65 in October 2026, the top of the RCCB category page’s price comparison: ABB’s F202 AC-25/0.01 was RM149.32–220, Schneider’s Easy9 EZ9R14225 RM100–121.53, Maxguard’s E25201N RM91.40 and Himel’s HDB6VR225LC RM50–62.55. One store, Pentagon Electric Mart, listed the Hager at RM215 and the Schneider at RM100. The devices aren’t identical: the CC225B has a 10kA conditional short-circuit rating against 4.5kA for the EZ9R14225. The Hager RCCB page sets out the comparison.

For surge protectors the gap is smaller. At Pentagon Electric Mart on Shopee, the 40kA single-phase SPL240 was RM312 against RM305 for Schneider’s iPRD40 1P+N, and the three-phase SPL440 RM658 against RM500. Hager IU boards were listed from RM196.35 to RM299.46 for an IU26S across nine listings; the IU and golf pages have the rest.

Hager’s own distributor records are another route: Genuine Electric in Johor Jaya appears in both Hager’s and Schneider’s. Because availability varies by shop, ask your usual supplier for the exact code before assuming it can get it.

What we haven’t researched yet

We haven’t yet researched Hager’s MCBs or isolators in Malaysia, nor walked Hager’s full distributor map. Hager Malaysia’s icos, vector and vega enclosures are mentioned on the DB box page but have no page of their own. Prices change: the Hager, Schneider and Maxguard RCCB figures above are dated 6 October 2026; the ABB and Himel RCCB figures and the surge protector and DB box figures are dated 8 October 2026.

Hager CDA240D
Hager CDA240D is a two-pole, 40A, 30mA Type A RCCB (6kA conditional short-circuit current, EN 61008-1) documented on a Hager European datasheet. Hager Malaysia has no product page for it, not even one marked obsolete or spare part, and no Malaysian seller listing was found in search; distributors may still hold older stock. Hager Malaysia's comparable current model is CD240J.
