Product details

The 6 kA breaking capacity at 400 V (typical for a 3-pole MCB in a 3-phase system) means this breaker can safely interrupt a fault current up to 6,000 A without welding its contacts or failing catastrophically — that's the standard rating for most commercial distribution boards. The B characteristic (instantaneous trip at 3–5× In, so 60–100 A for this 20 A unit) is sized for circuits with low inrush: lighting, socket outlets, control transformers. If your load includes motors or drives, you'd want a C or D curve to avoid nuisance trips on startup.

Deployment context

The 3-pole format occupies three modular units (17.5 mm per pole). Wire termination is via screw terminals accepting up to 25 mm² conductor — typical for a 20 A feed in a commercial installation.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of the 5SJ6320-6RC?

The 5SJ6320-6RC has a 6 kA breaking capacity, which is the standard rating for commercial distribution board applications.

Where can I buy the 5SJ6320-6RC?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What does the B characteristic mean on this MCB?

The B characteristic means the breaker trips instantaneously at 3 to 5 times its rated current (60–100 A for this 20 A unit), making it suitable for circuits with low inrush such as lighting and socket outlets.
