The 80 A rating holds at 40 °C and 45 °C; above that it derates linearly to 64 A at 70 °C, so a panel in a hot enclosure or near a heat source needs that thermal curve checked against the continuous load. Type A detection catches pulsating DC as well as AC residual currents, which is what you need downstream of single-phase rectifiers, VFDs, or switching power supplies that generate smoothed DC fault components. The 300 mA trip threshold is a fire-protection level, not personnel protection (that would be 30 mA or below); it's sized for submain or feeder circuits where earth leakage from equipment capacitance is expected. The IP20 rating applies once the distribution board is installed with conductors connected — this is a panel-interior device, not for wet or outdoor locations. Wire range accepts 1 … 16 mm² solid or stranded, with screw terminals torqued to 2.5 … 3 N·m. Finger and back-of-hand safe terminals meet the shock-protection standard for live-panel access.","metaTitle":"Siemens 5SM1617-6 SENTRON RCCB, 80 A, 300 mA, Type A, 2-pole","metaDescription":"Siemens 5SM1617-6 SENTRON RCCB, 80 A rated at 40 °C, 300 mA Type A trip, 10 kA SCCR, 2-pole, DIN rail.
