Product details

At 32 A, that's a magnetic trip between 320 A and 640 A, so it won't nuisance-trip on a motor start yet clears a hard short fast. Breaking capacity: 6 kA per EN 60898 (the household / commercial standard) and 5 kA per UL 1077 / CSA C22.2 No.235. The 6 kA figure governs in IEC-spec panels; the UL/CSA rating tells you it passes supplementary protection testing for North American installations. IP20 with connected conductors — the busbar and wire terminals are touch-safe once wired, but the breaker itself is not sealed against dust or moisture. Mount it inside a panel with a higher enclosure rating; it's not a standalone outdoor device.

Installation notes

Fastens via quick-assembly system (snap-on DIN rail). Mounting position any — horizontal or vertical in the cabinet is fine. Depth 76 mm, height 90 mm, width 18 mm. Installation depth 70 mm leaves clearance behind the rail.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 5SY6132-8CC and get a price?

This part is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Submit a request for quote; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

Will 5SY6132-8CC drop into a panel specified around 5SY3132-6 without rewiring?

Both are 1-pole, 18 mm wide DIN-rail MCBs with D-curve, so the mechanical fit and busbar pitch are identical. The 5SY6132-8CC is rated 32 A / 6 kA; the 5SY3132-6 is a different series (5SY3) with a 6 kA rating at a lower current. Check the load current on the existing branch — if it's 32 A, the 5SY6132-8CC is a direct electrical and mechanical replacement. If the branch is lower-rated, the 5SY6132-8CC will still fit but provides a higher ampacity than needed.

What compliance documentation does Siemens provide for 5SY6132-8CC?

The breaker carries IEC 60898 and UL 1077 / CSA C22.2 No.235 approvals. It is halogen-free and silicon-free. Standard Siemens documentation includes a CE declaration of conformity and the manufacturer's test certificate; RoHS and REACH compliance data is available on request.
