The Siemens 5SL6650-8CC is a 3+N-pole miniature circuit breaker (MCB) from the 5SL6 Basic Devices family, rated 400 V with a 6 kA breaking capacity and a D-curve trip characteristic at 50 A.
Deployment context
Snap-on mounting to a standard DIN rail in a distribution board or sub-panel. The 3+N-pole format (three protected phases plus a switched neutral) suits 3-phase 4-wire systems common in European and Asian installations — think panel feeders, lighting distribution, or small motor control centres where each outgoing circuit needs individual overcurrent protection on all live conductors.
Listed as Active (current production) by Siemens, so no end-of-life pressure on this order code. RoHS compliant since 01-06-13, with REACH candidate-list disclosure available — the compliance documentation an MRO storeroom keeper or quality doc-control team expects for a BOM freeze is available.
