Rated current is 32 A at 45 °C, derating to 31.2 A at 50 °C and 30.37 A at 55 °C — so if the panel ambient runs hot, factor the derate.
Deployment context
The neutral is switched (3P+N), which is useful for TN-S systems where you want the neutral isolated during maintenance. Touch protection is built in.
Compliance and approvals
The 5SY8632-8 carries a UL 1077 and CSA C22.2 No. 235 supplementary protector listing at 5 kA — enough for North American panel applications where a full UL 489 branch breaker isn't required. Halogen-free and silicon-free construction, sealable for lockout/tagout. Vibration resistance per IEC 60068-2-6 covers ±1 mm at 5–25 Hz and 50 m/s² at 25–150 Hz.
