The maximum permissible disconnection time is 0.4 s in TN system. Why and from where this value (0.4 s) is obtained?

The maximum permissible disconnection time in in the event of a short circuit between a phase conductor and a body or protective conductor or a protective-neutral conductor is 0.4 s in TN system. Does anybody know this value (0.4 s) obtains from where? How this value is obtained?
Yes that is the aprocaphable tale I heard about the 5s disconnection time.
I do do not know if there is any written requirement to lay rubber matting in front of LV panels but I think it may be based on grasping a nice shiny chrome operating handle and closing the switch on to a fault condition and waiting for 5s before ADS.
