Product details

The Siemens 5SN6204-8CP is a 2-pole miniature circuit breaker from the SENTRON 5SN series, rated for 400 V AC at 50 Hz. It carries a 6 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898 and a 30 kA rating per IEC 60947-2 — the higher figure governs industrial panel coordination where fault current can exceed residential levels.

Occupies 2 modular width units (36 mm wide) on a DIN rail, with a depth of 76 mm and an installation depth of 70 mm. Accepts solid conductors up to 35 mm².

DC-rated up to 72 V maximum, which covers control-circuit protection in 48 V or 60 V DC auxiliary supplies.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 5SN6204-8CP?

6 kA per EN 60898 for residential and commercial branch circuits, and 30 kA per IEC 60947-2 for industrial installations where higher fault current is expected.

Will 5SN6204-8CP drop into a panel specified around 5SL6516-6YA?

Both are 2-pole MCBs with identical footprint (76 mm depth, 36 mm width, 70 mm installation depth) and 2 modular width units. The 5SN6204-8CP is rated for 400 V AC versus the 5SL6516-6YA's 230 V AC, so it can serve the same slot electrically if the voltage rating is compatible. No rewiring of the DIN rail or busbar spacing is needed.
