The Siemens SENTRON 5SJ6116-6KS is a 1-pole miniature circuit breaker with B tripping characteristic, rated 16 A at 400 V AC and 6 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898 (also rated 6 kA per IEC 60947-2). The 6 kA interrupting rating covers most building distribution fault levels up to that point; if your upstream supply can deliver more fault current, this breaker won't clear it safely. Screwless outgoing terminals (push-in or cage-clamp style) speed wiring: strip 8–10 mm, push the conductor in, no screwdriver needed. That saves time on repetitive panel builds and reduces loose-terminal callbacks. Rated 400 V AC (max 440 V AC multi-phase) and 60 V DC. Insulation voltage 440 V, pollution degree 2, overvoltage category 3.
Deployment context
Mounts in any position on DIN rail. IP20 with connected conductors. Halogen-free, silicon-free, sealable.
