SIEMENS 5SY62066 installatieautomaat 2-polig 6A B-karakteristiek 6kA DIN-rail

Protecting electrical circuits from overload and short-circuit damage is critical in residential and commercial installations. The SIEMENS 5SY62066 miniature circuit breaker (MCB) safeguards your wiring and connected equipment with reliable, fast tripping. This 2-pole, 6 A, B-curve breaker is engineered for DIN rail mounting, offering a compact 70 mm width that fits standard distribution boards. It interrupts fault currents up to 6 kA, ensuring safety and compliance with IEC 60898-1.

Who is it for

Electricians, panel builders, and maintenance technicians who need a dependable MCB for protecting lighting and socket circuits in homes, offices, and light industrial environments. It is ideal for new installations or as a replacement in existing Siemens distribution boards.

Tips

Ensure the breaker's rated current matches the circuit's load and that the cable cross-section is within the terminal capacity. For installations with high inrush currents (e.g., motors, transformers), consider a C or D curve instead. Always install in a suitable enclosure to achieve IP40 protection and comply with local electrical codes.
