Product details

The Siemens 5SL6620-7MB is a SENTRON miniature circuit breaker — a 4-pole unit (3P+N) with a C-trip curve, rated 20 A at 400 V AC. The 6 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898 is the standard for residential and light-commercial distribution boards; it clears a bolted fault up to 6 kA without welding the contacts or cascading damage upstream. The C-curve means the magnetic trip fires between 5× and 10× rated current — 100 to 200 A — so it handles motor inrush from pumps or small compressors on a lighting or general-purpose circuit without nuisance tripping.

Where it goes and how it fits

The 4-module-width body (72 mm wide) occupies four 18 mm slots in a consumer unit or sub-distribution board. Installation depth is 70 mm, with an overall depth of 76 mm including the front face — check clearance to the enclosure door or cover.

What it handles — environmental and electrical

The 1.9 W power loss per pole at rated current adds up to about 7.6 W total for all four poles — negligible in a ventilated enclosure but worth noting if the board is sealed and densely populated.

Frequently asked questions

What is the 5SL6620-7MB used for?

It's a 4-pole miniature circuit breaker for 400 V AC distribution boards, protecting a 20 A final subcircuit with a C-curve trip characteristic suited for mixed resistive and moderate inductive loads.

Will the 5SL6620-7MB drop into a panel specified for the 5SL4363-7?

Both are SENTRON MCBs on the same DIN-rail footprint with the same 76 mm depth and 90 mm height, but the 5SL6620-7MB is 4-pole (72 mm wide) while the 5SL4363-7 is 3-pole (54 mm wide). The panel must have the extra 18 mm slot for the neutral pole, and the wiring to the N terminal must be accommodated. The breaking capacity differs: 6 kA vs 10 kA, so the upstream fault level must be checked.

Where can I buy the 5SL6620-7MB?
