Product details

It's a type AC, instantaneous-trip device rated at 40 A with a 300 mA fault current threshold, intended for 400 V AC systems.

The 40 A rating holds at 40 °C ambient (37.2 A), and derates progressively to 32 A at 70 °C. The operating range is -5 °C to 45 °C, with storage extremes of -40 °C to 75 °C.

The 70 mm installation depth matches standard distribution board cutouts. Not sealable, so it's intended for indoor, enclosed panels — not washdown or outdoor exposure.

Frequently asked questions

What is the 5SM2643-0 used for?

It's a residual current device (RCD) for 400 V AC, 4-pole circuits, rated 40 A with a 300 mA trip threshold. Type AC means it detects sinusoidal AC fault currents only. It's designed as an RC unit paired with 5SL4 series MCBs for combined overcurrent and earth-fault protection in distribution boards.

What are the key ratings of the 5SM2643-0?

Rated current 40 A AC, rated fault current 300 mA, insulation voltage 460 V, surge voltage resistance 4000 V. Thermal derating applies above 40 °C: 37.2 A at 45 °C, down to 32 A at 70 °C. Mechanical service life is 10,000 switching cycles typical.
