The 400 V AC rated voltage covers 3-phase line-to-line supplies up to 440 V maximum in multi-phase operation. The 6 A rating is the continuous thermal current — the breaker will carry 6 A indefinitely at 30 °C ambient without nuisance tripping, and the D-curve's magnetic trip kicks in above 60–120 A for short-circuit events. ## Where it goes — deployment context Suitability for operation in residential buildings and infrastructure is the manufacturer's stated application field — think consumer units, sub-distribution boards, lighting panels, and small commercial DBs. The D-curve makes it a natural fit for motor circuits (pumps, fans, compressors) and small transformers where the inrush would trip a B- or C-curve breaker on energization. Mounting position is unrestricted, so it can be installed horizontally or vertically in a panel. The sealable design allows a lead seal or lock to prevent unauthorized operation — useful for utility-metered or shared-access boards. Supplementary devices like shunt trips, auxiliary contacts, or alarm switches can be added via the SENTRON accessory range. ## How it compares to nearby siblings The closest peer in the ledger is the 5SL4363-7 — a 3-pole, C-curve, 63 A breaker with a 10 kA breaking capacity per both EN 60898 and IEC 60947-2. The 5SL6206-8CC shares the same 76 mm depth, 90 mm height, and SENTRON platform, but at 36 mm wide (2 MWU) versus 54 mm wide (3 MWU). The D-curve on the 6 A unit is the key difference: the 5SL4363-7's C-curve is for general-purpose loads, while the D-curve here is specifically for high-inrush applications.","metaTitle":"Siemens 5SL6206-8CC SENTRON MCB, 2P D 6A 400V 6kA","metaDescription":"Siemens 5SL6206-8CC SENTRON miniature circuit breaker, 2-pole, D-curve, 6 A, 400 V AC, 6 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898.
