The IP20 rating applies with conductors connected — standard for inside a distribution board where no washdown or outdoor exposure exists. ## Thermal derating and ambient range Rated 6 A at 30 °C ambient; derates to 5.58 A at 40 °C and 5.4 A at 45 °C. If the panel runs warm — say, near a transformer or in a sealed enclosure — account for that drop when sizing the load. ## Construction and compliance notes Halogen-free and silicon-free construction, which matters if the panel serves sensitive environments (medical, clean room) where outgassing from a fault could contaminate nearby equipment. The neutral conductor is switched, so the breaker disconnects both phase and neutral — required in many single-phase final circuits for full isolation.","metaTitle":"Siemens 5SL6506-7MB SENTRON MCB, 1P+N, C-Curve, 6A, 6kA","metaDescription":"Siemens 5SL6506-7MB SENTRON miniature circuit breaker, 1P+N, C tripping characteristic, 6 A rated current, 6 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898.
