The Siemens 5SV4316-0RC is a SENTRON 5SV4 Residual Current Operated Circuit Breaker (RCCB) designed for residual-current protection in suitable single-phase AC electrical installations. It is a 2-pole / 1+N, Type AC RCCB with a 63 A rated current and 30 mA rated residual operating current. Siemens technical documentation identifies the corresponding 5SV4316-0 as an instantaneous 2-pole Type AC RCCB with 63 A, 30 mA and 230 V AC ratings.
The India-facing product designation specifies 240 V, 2MW, making this model suitable for compatible single-phase distribution and protection applications.
The 5SV4316-0RC belongs to the Siemens SENTRON 5SV4 RCCB family. Its primary function is to detect residual current in a protected circuit and disconnect the circuit when the residual current reaches the specified operating threshold.
The 2-pole / 1+N configuration is intended for single-phase circuits where phase and neutral are incorporated into the residual-current protection arrangement.
The RCCB has a rated current of 63 A.
This makes it suitable for compatible single-phase distribution circuits and feeders where a 63 A residual-current protection device is required.
The connected circuit should be designed so that the RCCB operates within its specified current, voltage and installation conditions.
The 5SV4316-0RC has a rated residual operating current of 30 mA. Siemens' current datasheet confirms the 30 mA tripping fault current for the corresponding 5SV4316-0 article.
When residual current reaches the specified operating threshold, the RCCB trips and disconnects the protected circuit.
The 30 mA sensitivity should be selected according to the overall electrical protection design and applicable installation requirements.
The device is a Type AC RCCB.
Type AC residual-current circuit breakers are intended for compatible sinusoidal alternating residual currents. The correct RCCB type should be selected according to the leakage-current waveform that may occur in the actual installation.
The 5SV4316-0RC has 2 poles and is designed for 1+N single-phase applications.
This arrangement allows the phase and neutral conductors to be incorporated into the residual-current protection system.
Typical applications include:
Single-phase distribution boards
Commercial electrical panels
Sub-distribution circuits
Equipment feeders
Building electrical installations
Industrial auxiliary circuits
Single-phase feeder protection
The supplied India product description identifies the device as a 240 V, 2-module RCCB. Siemens' current datasheet for the corresponding 5SV4316-0 specifies 230 V AC rated supply voltage.
For the SB Smart product page, the 240 V India-market designation can be retained while the exact Siemens technical rating should be considered when selecting the device for an installation.
The 5SV4316-0RC is an instantaneous RCCB. Siemens specifies that its switching function is not short-time delayed.
This means the device responds without an intentionally introduced short-time delay when the specified residual-current threshold is reached.
Siemens specifies a 10 kA short-circuit current rating for the corresponding 5SV4316-0 article.
The RCCB should nevertheless be coordinated with suitable upstream overcurrent protection and the prospective short-circuit conditions of the installation.
An RCCB primarily provides residual-current protection and should not be treated as a substitute for an MCB or MCCB for overload and short-circuit protection unless the complete protection arrangement specifically provides those functions.
The India product description specifies 2MW, meaning 2 module width.
The 2MW designation refers to the physical modular width and does not indicate a 2 MW power rating. The older Siemens short-form catalogue also identifies the 63 A 2-pole Type AC 30 mA model within the compact modular range.
This compact format is suitable for:
Modular distribution boards
Consumer units
Commercial panels
Sub-distribution boards
Compact electrical enclosures
The 5SV4316-0RC is designed for installation in suitable modular electrical distribution assemblies.
The corresponding Siemens device is classified as size 1 according to DIN 43880 and uses a 60 mm grid spacing.
This supports integration with conventional modular protection equipment.
Residual current occurs when part of the electrical current flows outside the intended circuit path, such as through an unintended earth-leakage route.
The RCCB monitors the relevant current balance and disconnects the protected circuit when the residual current reaches the configured 30 mA threshold.
This provides an important additional layer of residual-current protection.
The 5SV4316-0RC can be considered for compatible single-phase applications such as:
Residential distribution boards
Commercial electrical panels
Building sub-distribution systems
Equipment supply circuits
Office electrical installations
Single-phase feeder protection
Industrial auxiliary circuits
The actual protection application should be determined by the electrical design and applicable regulations.
An RCCB should be coordinated with suitable overcurrent protection where required.
A typical arrangement may include:
Incoming Supply → MCB/MCCB → RCCB → Protected Load
The exact arrangement depends on the electrical system, upstream protection and installation requirements.
The RCCB's residual-current function should be considered separately from overload and short-circuit protection.
RCCBs should be included in an appropriate electrical inspection and testing program.
The test function should be operated according to the manufacturer's instructions and applicable maintenance requirements to verify correct residual-current tripping.
Regular testing can help confirm that the protective mechanism remains operational.
Before selecting the 5SV4316-0RC, verify:
Rated current: 63 A
Residual-current sensitivity: 30 mA
RCCB type: Type AC
Pole arrangement: 2-pole / 1+N
System voltage compatibility
Upstream overcurrent protection
Available panel space: 2 module width
Conductor size and termination
Applicable national electrical regulations
Siemens explicitly notes that these devices are not permitted in all countries and that national installation regulations must be observed.
The 5SV4312-0 is the corresponding 25 A, 2-pole / 1+N, 30 mA, Type AC RCCB, while 5SV4316-0 is rated at 63 A. Siemens product-selection data lists both within the Type AC 1P+N family.
Therefore:
5SV4312-0RC → 25 A, 30 mA
5SV4316-0RC → 63 A, 30 mA
The 5SV4314-0 is the corresponding 40 A, 2-pole / 1+N, 30 mA, Type AC version.
Therefore:
5SV4314-0RC → 40 A
5SV4316-0RC → 63 A
The main difference is the rated current of the protected circuit.
The 5SV4317-0 is the corresponding 80 A, 2-pole / 1+N, 30 mA, Type AC version. Siemens' catalogue lists the 63 A and 80 A variants together in this family.
Therefore:
5SV4316-0RC → 63 A
5SV4317-0RC → 80 A
The 5SV4416-0RC is the corresponding 63 A, 2-pole / 1+N, Type AC, 100 mA version.
Therefore:
5SV4316-0RC → 63 A, 30 mA
5SV4416-0RC → 63 A, 100 mA
The principal difference is the residual-current operating threshold. Siemens' product selection distinguishes these variants by residual-current sensitivity.
The 5SV4616-0RC is the corresponding 63 A, 2-pole / 1+N, Type AC, 300 mA version.
Therefore:
5SV4316-0RC → 63 A, 30 mA
5SV4416-0RC → 63 A, 100 mA
5SV4616-0RC → 63 A, 300 mA
The correct residual-current sensitivity should be selected according to the electrical protection scheme.
The 5SV4346-0RC is a 63 A, 4-pole / 3+N, Type AC, 30 mA RCCB, whereas the 5SV4316-0RC is a 63 A, 2-pole / 1+N device.
Therefore:
5SV4316-0RC → 63 A, 2-pole / 1+N
5SV4346-0RC → 63 A, 4-pole / 3+N
The first is intended for suitable single-phase circuits, while the second is for suitable three-phase-plus-neutral systems.
The Siemens 5SV4316-0RC is relevant for:
Electrical panel builders

Electrical contractors
Commercial electrical contractors
Facility-maintenance teams
