Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 5SV8001-6KK is a residual current monitor (RCM) — it watches for ground leakage on a circuit and trips a relay when the leakage exceeds the set threshold. This one is digital, Type A, meaning it catches both sinusoidal AC faults and pulsed DC faults up to 30 A (the IDN range). The adjustable time delay from 0.02 s to 10 s lets you coordinate with downstream RCDs so you don't get a nuisance trip on a temporary inrush or a capacitive load charging up.

Screw terminals accept AWG 26 to AWG 14, strip 10 mm. The front face is IP41 (splash-resistant, tools won't poke through), the terminal area is IP20 (finger-safe with conductors connected). It needs an external summation current transformer (CT) from the 5SV8700 series; wire run from the CT to the monitor can be up to 10 m.

Supply voltage is AC only, 184–276 V (nominal 230 V). Overvoltage category III means it's rated for fixed-installation distribution panels, not just downstream of a transformer. Pollution degree 2 — normal factory floor, not heavy dust or condensation. Power draw is 6 VA max, so it won't cook a tightly packed enclosure.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5SV8001-6KK and how do I get a price?

We source the 5SV8001-6KK to order. Send an RFQ and we'll confirm availability and current pricing at quote time.

Will 5SV8001-6KK drop into a panel that was specified around 5SY4304-7CV without rewiring?

No — the 5SY4304-7CV is a miniature circuit breaker, not a residual current monitor. Different function, different wiring. The 5SV8001-6KK needs an external summation CT and a 184–276 V AC supply; the 5SY4304-7CV is a 3-pole MCB with no CT interface.

What compliance documentation does this brand provide for 5SV8001-6KK?

As a Siemens SENTRON product, the 5SV8001-6KK carries CE marking for the European market. Specific RoHS, REACH, and UL documentation should be available from Siemens' official documentation portal or requested at quote time.
