Rated short-circuit current withstand is 10 kA, and the I²t value of 58,000 A²·s gives the upstream protective device a defined energy window for coordination. The 300 mA threshold suits circuits where nuisance tripping from leakage in IT equipment or long cable runs would be a problem — think sub-distribution boards feeding office floors or small machine cells. Terminal capacity accepts solid or stranded conductors from 0.75 to 35 mm², which covers everything from 1.5 mm² lighting circuits up to 10 mm² feeder tails. Finger and back-of-hand safe terminals allow live working in the panel without additional shrouding — a practical consideration for commissioning engineers who need to verify voltage on the load side. ## Thermal performance and derating Derating begins at 65 °C (23.3 A,) and drops to 17.62 A at 70 °C. For a panel running at 50 °C ambient — typical for a sealed enclosure with drives — this RCCB delivers its full 25 A without headroom loss. Storage range is -40 to +75 °C.","metaTitle":"Siemens 5SV3612-6BA SENTRON RCCB, 25 A, 300 mA, Type A","metaDescription":"Siemens 5SV3612-6BA SENTRON 2-pole RCCB, 25 A rated at 230/400 V AC, 300 mA Type A, 10 kA SCCR.

Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm commercial offer."},{"question":"What is the closest functional second-source to 5SV3612-6BA?","answer":"The peer MPNs 5SL6563-7BB, 5SL6550-7BB, and 5SY5232-6 are in the same SENTRON family but are MCBs (miniature circuit breakers), not RCCBs. They serve overcurrent protection, not residual current detection. For a direct RCCB substitute, stick with the 5SV3 series; the 5SV3612-6BA has no exact second-source in the listed peers."},{"question":"What is the depth of 5SV3612-6BA?","answer":"The installation depth is 70 mm, matching the overall depth of 70 mm. This fits standard 70 mm deep distribution boards."},{"question":"What conductor cross-sections does 5SV3612-6BA accept?","answer":"Solid and stranded conductors from 0.75 mm² up to 35 mm². This covers typical panel wiring from 1.5 mm² lighting circuits to 10 mm² feeder tails."},{"question":"Will 5SV3612-6BA drop into a panel specified around 5SL6563-7BB without rewiring?","answer":"No — the 5SL6563-7BB is an MCB, not an RCCB. They serve different protection functions (overcurrent vs. residual current). The 5SV3612-6BA requires a neutral conductor through the device for residual current detection, which an MCB circuit may not provide. Rewiring and possibly a different enclosure slot are needed."},{"question":"What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 5SV3612-6BA?","answer":"As a current-production SENTRON component, Siemens typically supplies RoHS and REACH declarations. Specific UL, IEC, or other jurisdictional certifications should be verified against the project requirements at quote time — the evidence does not list individual cert marks."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/siemens/5SV3612-6BA","citationPolicyUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/llms.txt","source":"AO Ctrl","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"AO Ctrl\" and link https://aoctrl.com/siemens/5SV3612-6BA when reusing this data.
