Product details

This breaker carries three breaking-capacity ratings depending on the standard applied: 10 kA per EN 60898-1 (the household and similar installations standard), 20 kA per IEC 60947-2 (the industrial switchgear standard), and 15 kA at DC per IEC 60947-2. At 230 V AC single-phase it is rated 250 V; at DC it handles up to 72 V. For UL 1077 / CSA C22.2 No. 235 installations the interrupting rating is 5 kA. That spread means the same part can be specified across IEC and UL jurisdictions, but the applicable rating depends on the local code and the fault current available at the panel.

It mounts in any position, uses a quick-assembly fastening system, and accepts top and bottom combined terminals. Neutral conductor switching is integrated, so no separate neutral block is needed downstream for the protected circuit.

Halogen-free and silicon-free construction. The part is sealable, which matters for installations requiring tamper-evident locking after commissioning.

Frequently asked questions

What are the breaking capacity ratings for 5SY4525-7?

10 kA per EN 60898-1, 20 kA per IEC 60947-2 at AC, 15 kA per IEC 60947-2 at DC, and 5 kA per UL 1077 / CSA C22.2 No. 235.

Will 5SY4525-7 drop into a panel specified around 5SY4116-7CV?

Both are 2-module-width SENTRON MCBs on the same DIN-rail footprint, so the 5SY4525-7 will physically fit. The key difference is the tripping characteristic — C-curve on the 5SY4525-7 versus whatever the 5SY4116-7CV carries — so verify the curve matches the load type before swapping.

Where can I buy 5SY4525-7?

This part is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Submit a request for quote to confirm current availability and pricing.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 5SY4525-7?

The breaker is certified to IEC / EN 60898-1, IEC / EN 60947-2, and UL 1077. It is halogen-free and silicon-free. RoHS and REACH declarations are standard from Siemens for this SENTRON series.
