Product details

The Siemens 5SJ6563-6 is a SENTRON 5SJ6 miniature circuit breaker — 1P+N poles, B-curve trip characteristic, rated 63 A at 240 V AC with a 6 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898 (also 6 kA per IEC 60947-2). It also carries a 60 V DC maximum rating, so it can protect DC control circuits fed from the same panel.

The 63 A rating on a single-pole+N breaker covers high-current branch circuits — think large resistive heaters, lighting banks, or distribution subfeeds where you need overcurrent protection on the live conductor with a switched neutral. Energy limiting class 3 means it restricts let-through energy well, so downstream components see less stress during a short.

IP20 with conductors connected, so it belongs inside a closed enclosure, not exposed to washdown. Touch protection is built in. The 1P+N design switches the neutral internally; verify your distribution scheme expects a switched neutral before wiring.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 5SJ6563-6?

6 kA per EN 60898 and also 6 kA per IEC 60947-2 — both ratings are identical on this unit.

Will 5SJ6563-6 drop into a panel specified around 5SJ6220-6?

Yes — both are 2-width-unit (36 mm) 5SJ6 breakers with the same 70 mm installation depth and DIN-rail mounting. The 5SJ6220-6 is a 20 A, 2-pole version; the 5SJ6563-6 is 63 A, 1P+N. Same footprint, same terminal layout, same mechanical service life of 20 000 cycles. No rewiring needed if the busbar and conductor sizes match the higher current.

What is the maximum ambient temperature for 5SJ6563-6?

The surrounding temperature influence is periodically +55 °C with max 95% humidity — that's the operating condition, not just storage. Storage range is -40 to +75 °C.

Where can I buy 5SJ6563-6?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — send the quantity and target lead time for a firm response.
