Siemens Residual Current Circuit Breaker with Overload Protection 13A Current, 2-Pole, 30 mA Trip Sensitivity 5SV1316-7KK13

Siemens 5SV1316-7KK13 Residual Current Circuit Breaker with Overload Protection is engineered for effective combined earth-fault detection and overcurrent interruption in single-phase electrical systems. Rated for 13A current and equipped with 30 mA trip sensitivity, it ensures safety and reliability in domestic and light commercial electrical distribution.

This 2-pole device features type A earth leakage protection capable of detecting AC and pulsating fault currents. It supports a robust 6 kA breaking capacity, minimizing energy stress and reducing potential damage during fault conditions. The type C instantaneous tripping characteristic allows for tolerance of moderate inrush currents typically found in lighting and socket circuits.

Its compact design features a narrow 18mm width suitable for installation on standard DIN rails inside distribution boards, where it simultaneously switches live and neutral conductors for comprehensive circuit protection. Screw terminals accept conductors up to 16mm², providing secure and reliable electrical connections.

This circuit breaker is designed to support various mounting orientations and complies with IP20 protection standards when installed inside enclosures, making it suitable for new installations and retrofit projects. Additionally, the mechanical switching life is approximately 10,000 cycles, ensuring durability and long-term performance.

The device is applicable for residential distribution boards needing earth leakage protection, small commercial setups, lighting, and socket circuits with moderate inrush currents. Its surge resistance is approximately 1 kA for an 8/20 μs waveform, with switching capacity ratings per EN 60898 and IEC 60947-2 standards.

Features type A detection for AC and pulsating fault current sensitivity. Offers 6 kA breaking capacity to reduce fault energy and damage. Type C instantaneous tripping characteristic for moderate inrush current tolerance.
