The Siemens SENTRON 5SL4602-8 is a 4-pole (3P+N) miniature circuit breaker rated 2 A with a D tripping characteristic, designed to protect final circuits in residential and infrastructure installations. Its 10 kA breaking capacity per both EN 60898 and IEC 60947-2 means it can safely interrupt fault currents up to that level without upstream cascading — important for panels where the prospective short-circuit current is known to be in that range. At 400 V AC (rated supply voltage) this breaker handles a 2 A continuous load; derate to 1.92 A at 40 °C ambient and 1.79 A at 55 °C if the panel runs warm.
Occupies 4 modular width units (72 mm) on a DIN rail — standard for a 4-pole MCB in this class. Depth of 76 mm (installation depth 70 mm) means it clears most shallow enclosures; the 90 mm height leaves room for busbar combing and labelling strips. Mount in any position; rated for pollution degree 2 (typical for clean indoor panels) and overvoltage category III. Neutral conductor is switched internally (3P+N), so no need for a separate neutral pole. IP20 with connected conductors — fine for a closed panel, not for washdown areas. Sealable (provision for a lockout tag) and touch-protected per the product feature, which simplifies safe isolation during maintenance.
