Rating and deployment context
The Siemens 5SL6114-8CC is a 1-pole miniature circuit breaker rated at 0.3 A with a D tripping characteristic, breaking 6 kA at 230/400 V AC. The D-curve (10-20× In) is designed for loads with high inrush currents — typically motor starters, small transformers, or solenoid banks — where a B or C curve would nuisance-trip on start-up. At 0.3 A this is a low-current branch protection device, not a main feeder breaker.
Lifecycle and sourcing
Listed as current production (Active). The 5SL series remains a standard Siemens panel component, widely specified in European-origin distribution boards and sub-distribution panels. Sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution; availability and current pricing confirmed at quote time.
Compliance and documentation
RoHS compliant since June 1, 2013. REACH Article 33 notification applies — the product contains lead (CAS 7439-92-1) above 0.1% w/w in one or more homogenous materials. No UL or CSA listing appears in the available data; verify local code acceptance for installations outside IEC 60898 jurisdictions.
