Product details

What a 50 A B-curve MCB means on the panel

The 5SP4250-6 is a 2-pole miniature circuit breaker from the Siemens SENTRON 5SP4 family, rated 50 A at 400 V AC with a B tripping characteristic. The 10 kA breaking capacity under EN 60898 tells you it can safely interrupt a fault up to 10 kA at 400 V; the 20 kA rating under IEC 60947-2 gives you headroom if the panel's prospective short-circuit current is higher. Tunnel terminals top and bottom make it straightforward to land solid or stranded copper without ring lugs — a time-saver on a busy panel build.

Mounting and integration notes

Tunnel terminals top and bottom accept conductors without needing bootlace ferrules for stranded wire. No separate neutral pole to wire — it's a 2-pole device, so both phase and switched neutral (or two phases) are broken together.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 5SP4250-6?

10 kA per EN 60898 and 20 kA per IEC 60947-2 at 400 V AC.

What tripping characteristic does 5SP4250-6 have?

It has a B characteristic, meaning the magnetic trip operates at 3 to 5 times rated current — suited for resistive and general-purpose loads, not heavy motor starting.

Where can I buy 5SP4250-6?

This part is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What is the rated current of 5SP4250-6?

50 A at AC, 400 V.
