The Siemens 5SL6206-7CC is a SENTRON miniature circuit breaker — a 2-pole, C-curve unit rated 6 A at 400 V AC, with a breaking capacity of 6 kA per EN 60898.
The 5SL6206-7CC occupies 2 modular width units (36 mm) on a DIN rail, with a depth of 76 mm and an installation depth of 70 mm behind the panel face. That 36 mm footprint is standard for a 2-pole MCB — it clips into the same rail as any other SENTRON 5SL6 device, so a panel layout using 1-pole or 3-pole siblings can accommodate this unit without re-spacing. The IP20 rating applies with connected conductors, meaning the busbar and wiring must be enclosed behind a distribution board cover or cabinet door. Mounting position is unrestricted, which helps when the panel is oriented for cable entry from below or above.
What the 2-pole C-curve 6 A configuration covers
The C-curve at 6 A suits general-purpose branch circuits feeding lighting, socket outlets, or small appliances in residential buildings and infrastructure.
