The Siemens 5SY4116-8CC11 is a SENTRON miniature circuit breaker rated 16 A at 400 V AC with a D tripping characteristic and a 10 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898. Breaking capacity at 10 kA is the standard domestic and light commercial fault level; if your prospective short-circuit current exceeds that, you need an upstream current-limiting device or a higher-rated breaker.

Frequently asked questions
What is the breaking capacity of 5SY4116-8CC11?
10 kA per EN 60898 at 400 V AC. That is the standard domestic and light commercial fault level.
Where can I buy 5SY4116-8CC11?
Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.
Will 5SY4116-8CC11 drop into a panel specified for 5SY3132-6?
The 5SY4116-8CC11 is a 1-pole D-curve 16 A breaker; the 5SY3132-6 is a different pole count and characteristic. They share the same 18 mm width and DIN-rail mounting, but the tripping curve and current rating differ — verify the circuit requirements before substituting.
What compliance documentation does this brand provide?
The SENTRON series carries EN 60898 certification for breaking capacity. The part is halogen-free and silicon-free, which supports RoHS and REACH compliance. Specific declarations are available from the manufacturer upon request.
