Altistart 48 motor leakage protection

Altistart 48 motor leakage protection

(OP)
Hi all!
Is there any leakage/residual current protection implemented in Schneider Electric ATS48 soft starter, in steady state, after start? I haven't found anything about it inside the manual.
We need a protection equivalent to RCD, i.e. switch off the motor in the case of relatively small fault current to earth, which won't be able to trip MCCB within proper time.

No. Many other digital soft starters do provide Residusl Current Detection for the output, but that one does not.

Thank you, jraef. Can you, please, recommend me some types available on European market with this protection built in?
