The instantaneous design (non-delayed) means it trips on the first detectable fault — no intentional time lag for selectivity coordination downstream. The 70 mm depth and 72 mm width match the standard SENTRON modular footprint; the 90 mm height clears most enclosure lids without a deep gland plate. The IP20 rating applies only when the distribution board is installed with conductors connected — treat it as a panel-internal device, not for wet or outdoor locations. Silicon-free construction is relevant for potting or conformal-coating processes in sensitive environments. The 300 mA residual trip is a Type A characteristic — it detects sinusoidal AC faults plus pulsating DC faults up to 6 mA smooth DC superimposed. That covers most modern electronic loads (VFDs, switched-mode supplies, LED drivers) that can produce pulsating DC leakage. The 1 kA surge current resistance means it withstands lightning-induced or switching transients without nuisance tripping.","metaTitle":"Siemens 5SV5642-6 SENTRON RCCB, 25A, 300mA, 4-Pole","metaDescription":"Siemens 5SV5642-6 SENTRON RCCB, 4-pole Type A, 25A, 300mA, 400V AC, 6kA SCCR.

The 5SQ2670-2YA16 is a 4-pole MCB with C-curve and 16 A rating, also not an RCCB. No direct functional second-source exists in the SENTRON family for a 4-pole Type A RCCB at 25 A / 300 mA; the 5SV5642-6 is the correct part for that application."},{"question":"Will the 5SV5642-6 drop into a panel designed for the 5SL4363-7?","answer":"No — the 5SL4363-7 is a 3-pole MCB (54 mm wide, 3 MW) while the 5SV5642-6 is a 4-pole RCCB (72 mm wide, 4 MW).
