Product details

It's rated 40 A, 3+N-pole, 300 mA sensitivity, 400 V, with a 10 kA breaking capacity at 50 Hz. This is the core earth-leakage protection device for a three-phase panel — catches ground faults on the line side of the load, not the branch circuit.

40 A continuous rating means this RCCB sits upstream of loads drawing up to that current — sized for a sub-distribution board feeding several smaller circuits. The 300 mA residual sensitivity is for fire protection or equipment protection, not personnel shock protection (that's 30 mA or lower). It trips on sinusoidal AC earth faults only (Type AC); if the load has rectifiers, VFDs, or switching supplies that generate pulsed DC fault currents, you'd need Type A or Type B instead.

Deployment context

The 3+N-pole design switches all three phases plus the neutral; the neutral must pass through the device for the residual current sensing to work. Rated 50 Hz only — not suitable for 60 Hz installations or variable-frequency supplies without verifying the core's frequency response.

Frequently asked questions

What is the 5SM3644-0MJ's rated frequency?

The rated frequency is 50 Hz. It is not rated for 60 Hz operation.

Where can I buy the 5SM3644-0MJ and how is it quoted?

The 5SM3644-0MJ is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution channels. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

Will the 5SM3644-0MJ drop into a panel specified around the 5SL4363-7?

No. The 5SL4363-7 is a 3-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) with different pole count, function, and footprint. The 5SM3644-0MJ is a 3+N-pole RCCB — they serve different protection roles and are not direct drop-in replacements without rewiring.
