Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 5SY6008-7KL is a 1P+N miniature circuit breaker rated 8 A with a C tripping characteristic and a 6 kA breaking capacity per EN 60898 at 230 V AC. The C-curve means it tolerates moderate inrush (motors, transformers, capacitive loads) without nuisance tripping, but still clears fast on a hard short.

The 1P+N format switches the line and switches the neutral — the neutral pole is not protected, but it disconnects for isolation. Screw terminals accept solid or stranded copper from 0.75 mm² up to 16 mm², torqued to 2–2.5 N·m.

Frequently asked questions

Who supplies 5SY6008-7KL and how is it quoted for volume purchases?

Sourced through independent distribution channels. Quoted to order against an RFQ; availability and current pricing confirmed at quote time.

What is the closest functional second-source for 5SY6008-7KL?

The 5SY6008-7 (without the -KL suffix) shares the same 1P+N, C-8 A, 6 kA ratings but may differ in accessory fit or packaging — verify terminal layout before substitution.

Will 5SY6008-7KL drop into a panel specified around 5SY6008-7 without rewiring?

Electrically identical — same 8 A C-curve, 6 kA, 1P+N. The -KL suffix typically indicates a packaging or logistics variant; the DIN-rail footprint and terminal pitch are the same. Confirm accessory compatibility if using busbars or shunt trips.
