Product details

Breaking capacity is 0.8 kA per IEC 61008-1 and EN 60898 — modest by industrial feeder standards, but adequate for the sub-distribution boards this RCCB is sized for. The let-through energy is capped at 70 000 A²·s (I²t), which tells you the internal arc-quenching geometry is designed to clear fast on a bolted fault.

Thermal derating — the number that matters in a warm panel

At 40 °C and 45 °C this RCCB carries a full 25 A. Push the ambient to 50 °C and it drops to 23.5 A; at 60 °C you're at 20.5 A; at 70 °C it's 17.5 A. That derating curve is the spec that decides whether this breaker holds in a crowded enclosure next to a transformer or a contactor bank.

The 77 mm overall depth leaves a few millimeters for wiring loops behind the busbar. Position of the supply cable can be top or bottom — no forced orientation. IP20 with the distribution board installed and conductors connected; finger and back-of-hand safe per the protection-against-electrical-shock feature.

Frequently asked questions

What is the 5SM3342-0's depth and width for panel layout?

Depth is 77 mm, width is 72 mm (4 width units on DIN rail), and installation depth behind the panel door is 70 mm.

Will the 5SM3342-0 drop into a panel specified around the 5SY4304-7CV?

Both are 4-pole Siemens RCCBs on the same DIN-rail footprint, so mechanical fit is the same. The 5SM3342-0 is AC-type instantaneous; verify the peer's type and trip characteristic match your circuit's fault-current profile before swapping.
