Product details

It's rated 13 A, C-curve, 230 V AC, with a 6 kA breaking capacity per both IEC 60947-2 and EN 60898-1. That 6 kA is the short-circuit capacity at the terminals; the real value here is the integrated arc-fault detection, which catches series arcs down to 2 A and parallel arcs up to 500 A.

If your panel has a higher available fault current, you'll need to coordinate upstream or step to a higher-rated device. The arc-fault detection side is what separates this from a plain MCB. It detects low-energy series arcs (as low as 2 A) that a standard breaker won't trip on — those are the ones that start fires behind drywall or in junction boxes. The parallel arc detection (50 A to 500 A) covers the higher-energy fault between line and neutral or ground. This unit does both in one 18 mm slot, saving rail space over separate AFCI and MCB devices. The 1P+N configuration switches the phase and monitors the neutral, but does not switch the neutral — it's a solid neutral path through the device. That's standard for single-pole AFCI/GFCI breakers in North American practice, though this is a DIN-rail format for European and IEC-style panels. The neutral conductor is not disconnected when the breaker trips, which matters for maintaining circuit integrity downstream.

Installation depth is 70 mm; the device body is 68.5 mm deep, so it sits flush with the rail edge. That covers unconditioned enclosures in most climates.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between the 5SV6016-7KK13 and a standard MCB like the 5SY3025-7KL?

The 5SV6016-7KK13 integrates arc-fault detection (AFDD) into the MCB body, catching series arcs from 2 A to 13 A and parallel arcs from 50 A to 500 A. A standard MCB like the 5SY3025-7KL provides only overcurrent and short-circuit protection — no arc-fault sensing. Both share the same 18 mm DIN-rail footprint, but the AFDD unit adds the series/parallel arc detection circuitry internally.

Does the 5SV6016-7KK13 switch the neutral?

No. It is a 1P+N configuration that switches the phase conductor only; the neutral path is solid (not switched).

Where can I buy the 5SV6016-7KK13?
