Pole configuration and panel fit
This is a 1P+N (2-pole) design — the switched phase plus a switched neutral — in a 36 mm wide housing occupying 2 modular width units on a DIN rail. The neutral pole opens and closes with the phase, which is required by some national wiring rules for final sub-circuits.
Rated 10 kA at 230 V AC per EN 60898 and IEC 60947-2, the 5SL4510-6 coordinates cleanly with a 25 kA upstream main breaker in most residential and light commercial panels. For motor or transformer circuits with higher inrush, a C-curve sibling would be the better call.
Environmental range and approvals
IP20 with connected conductors, so it requires enclosure protection against moisture ingress.
