The Siemens 5SL6232-8CC is a 2-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) rated at 32 A, 400 V, with a 6 kA breaking capacity and a D tripping curve. It belongs to the Basic Devices product family and carries Group Code P310, Product Group 3821.
The 2-pole configuration switches both phase conductors simultaneously, making it suitable for single-phase 230 V line-to-neutral circuits or two-phase 400 V line-to-line circuits where both poles need coordinated overcurrent protection.
Deployment context
Snap-mounted onto a DIN rail in a distribution board or sub-panel. The D-curve and 6 kA rating place it in industrial or commercial branch circuits feeding motor loads or other high-inrush equipment — not typically used in residential final circuits where B- or C-curve MCBs dominate.
The Product class B designation means returns are restricted — contact your Siemens partner or distributor for RMA terms before ordering.
