SIEMENS SENTRON 5SL6 Miniature Circuit Breaker 230V 6kA 1P+N B13 (5SL6013-6)

Miniature circuit breaker with 1 protected pole and switched neutral, rated for 13 A and 230 V AC. The B tripping characteristic ensures reliable protection of circuits with moderate inrush currents, while the 6 kA breaking capacity handles short-circuit faults safely. Compact 2-module width saves space on the DIN rail.

Advantages

Precise overload and short-circuit protection for residential and commercial installations. Screw terminals accommodate conductors up to 35 mm² solid or 25 mm² stranded, simplifying wiring. Mechanical endurance of 20,000 switching cycles ensures long service life.

Suitable for

• Protection of socket outlets and lighting circuits in residential buildings
• Control circuits in industrial panels
• Distribution boards where space is limited
