Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 5SM1744-0 is a 4-pole residual current operated circuit breaker (RCCB) rated at 40 A and 400 V AC, with a 500 mA tripping residual current.

This RCCB carries its full 40 A rating up to 45 °C ambient. Above that, the current must be derated: 38.4 A at 50 °C, 36.8 A at 55 °C, 35.2 A at 60 °C, 33.6 A at 65 °C, and 32 A at 70 °C. If the panel ambient exceeds 45 °C, the derated figure governs the continuous load — not the nameplate 40 A.

Snaps onto DIN rail (REG) and occupies 4 width units (roughly 72 mm at 18 mm per unit). Installation depth is 55 mm. Mounting position is unrestricted.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest functional second-source for 5SM1744-0?

The 5SY4304-7CV is a peer RCCB in the same SENTRON family, but it is a 4-pole type A device (detects pulsed DC as well as AC) with different tripping characteristics. The 5SM1744-0 is type AC only. Verify the fault type requirement before substituting — type AC covers sinusoidal AC faults; type A adds pulsed DC detection for appliances with rectifiers.

What conductor sizes does 5SM1744-0 accept?

Both solid and stranded conductors from 1.5 to 25 mm² are accepted by the screw terminals.

Where can I buy 5SM1744-0?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — submit an RFQ for a firm commitment.

Does 5SM1744-0 drop into a panel specified around 5SY4304-7CV without rewiring?

Both are 4-pole RCCBs on DIN rail with the same width (4 units) and similar terminal ranges. The physical footprint and wiring are compatible, but the 5SM1744-0 is type AC (sinusoidal AC only) while the 5SY4304-7CV is type A (AC plus pulsed DC). If the original specification required type A for circuits with electronics or rectified loads, substitution with type AC may not provide adequate protection.
