The Siemens SENTRON 5SV1316-7GV13 is a 2-pole RCBO (residual current circuit breaker with overcurrent protection) in a 1P+N configuration, rated for 230 V AC at 50 Hz. It carries a 13 A rated current at 30 °C with a C tripping curve and a 6 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898 — the standard for household and similar installations. The Type A fault current detection means it handles pulsating DC residual currents from single-phase rectifiers, common in modern electronics loads.
Thermal derating and panel fit
Rated current drops with ambient temperature: 12.35 A at 40 °C, 11.57 A at 50 °C, and 10.01 A at 70 °C. The 18 mm width (1 width unit) and 77 mm depth (70 mm installation depth) fit standard DIN-rail enclosures. Mounting position is unrestricted. Feed from top or bottom — no orientation constraint. IP20 with the distribution board installed and conductors connected.
