Product details

The Siemens 5SY4106-6CC is a 1-pole SENTRON miniature circuit breaker rated 6 A with a B tripping characteristic, breaking 10 kA per EN 60898 at 50/60 Hz AC.

Temperature Derating — The Real Ampacity

At 35 °C ambient the 5SY4106-6CC carries its full 6 A. Push the panel ambient to 40 °C and it derates to 5.51 A; at 50 °C it's 4.97 A; at 55 °C it's 4.69 A. That's not a datasheet footnote — it's the actual current the breaker will hold without nuisance tripping in a warm enclosure.

Panel Fit & Integration

Snaps onto DIN rail (the quick assembly system) in any mounting position. Depth is 76 mm, which leaves clearance behind a standard 80 mm deep enclosure; installation depth is 70 mm from the rail face. The 18 mm width means it takes one modular unit — no surprises when you're laying out a 12-way board. IP20 with conductors connected, so it's a panel-interior device; keep it behind a locked door or enclosure cover.

Compliance & Environmental

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of this MCB?

10 kA rated per EN 60898 at 50/60 Hz AC. That's the short-circuit current it can interrupt without failing, coordinated for typical distribution board fault levels.

What does the B curve mean for my load?

The B characteristic trips magnetically between 3 and 5 times rated current (18–30 A for this 6 A breaker). It's suited for resistive loads, general lighting, and small motor circuits where inrush stays under that threshold.

Does the 5SY4106-6CC require derating in a hot panel?

Yes. At 40 °C it carries 5.51 A; at 50 °C it's 4.97 A; at 55 °C it's 4.69 A. Size for the actual ambient temperature inside the enclosure, not the 6 A label.
