The Siemens SENTRON 5SV3344-6BA is a 4-pole residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) from the 5SV3 series, rated 40 A at 400 V AC. It's a Type A instantaneous device — catches sinusoidal AC faults plus pulsating DC fault currents up to 1 kHz, which covers most single-phase rectified loads like switched-mode supplies and variable-speed drives downstream. Mounts on DIN rail, takes 4 width units (72 mm).
Derating and panel fit
Above that, the thermal curve steps down: 38.1 A at 45 °C, 35.59 A at 50 °C, 32.29 A at 55 °C, 28.19 A at 60 °C, 23.3 A at 65 °C, and 17.62 A at 70 °C. The 70 mm depth matches standard distribution board cutouts; mounting position is any orientation. IP20 with conductors connected, so it's for enclosed panels only, not washdown zones.
