The B-curve (3–5× In) trips quickly on moderate overloads, making it the usual choice for resistive loads and general-purpose socket circuits where inrush is low. The 6 A rating protects a branch circuit drawing up to 1.38 kW at 230 V. With 1P+N construction the neutral pole switches and isolates, so the breaker can serve as the main disconnecting means for a single-phase final subcircuit — no separate neutral isolator needed. Ambient conditions allow periodic exposure to +55 °C and up to 95% humidity — fine for a ventilated indoor cabinet but not for a sealed outdoor box without climate control.

Frequently asked questions
What is 5SY6006-6KV used for?
It protects a single-phase 230 V AC branch circuit at 6 A with a B-curve, typically in residential and light commercial distribution boards for socket outlets and lighting circuits.
Where can I buy 5SY6006-6KV?
Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.
Will 5SY6006-6KV drop into a panel built for 5SY6006-7?
The 5SY6006-7 variant has a 76 mm depth versus 70 mm for this part, and adds sealable terminals plus halogen-free/silicon-free construction. Both share the same 18 mm width, 90 mm height, and standard-rail fastening, so the 5SY6006-6KV fits the same DIN-rail footprint — but the shallower depth may leave a gap in panels designed for the deeper unit.
