1-pole overcurrent protection B-curve tripping characteristic 6kA interrupting rating 230/400V voltage Suitable for resistive loads Compact design

Product description

The Siemens 5SL6106-6 is a 1-pole miniature circuit breaker designed for effective overcurrent protection in various electrical systems. It operates at 230/400V with a 6kA breaking capacity and features a B-curve tripping characteristic. This unit is rated for 6A.

With its B-curve, this breaker is ideal for protecting resistive loads and sensitive electronics where the inrush current is relatively low. It trips between 3 to 5 times its rated current, providing fast response to overloads and short circuits, commonly used in residential and light commercial applications.
