Industrial 20 A DIN-rail breaker
The SIEMENS 5SY41208 is a single-pole supplementary protector rated 20 A at 230/400 V AC with a 10 kA interrupting capacity. It uses a thermal-magnetic trip curve D and mounts on standard DIN rail for industrial control panels.
Check voltage, wire gauge and rail space
Verify the supply is 230/400 V AC single-phase and that conductors fall between 14 AWG and 4 AWG for the screw-clamp terminals. Confirm the panel provides 3.54 in length, 0.69 in width and 3.01 in depth per pole on the DIN rail.
Screw-clamp terminals on DIN rail
The toggle actuator gives clear on/off indication while the screw-clamp connections accept solid or stranded wire without ferrules. DIN-rail mounting allows quick side-by-side installation and easy replacement in crowded enclosures.

Questions about this item
What comes in the box with the 5SY41208 breaker and what must be purchased separately?
The unit itself is supplied. DIN rail, mounting screws and wiring between 14 AWG and 4 AWG are not included and must be sourced separately.
Which 5SY4 series variant should I choose for a 20 A industrial circuit?
Select the 20 A, 1-pole, Curve D version rated 230/400 V AC with a 10 kA breaking capacity; it matches the 5SY41208 specifications exactly.
What does the 10 kA rating mean when the breaker is installed on a 230/400 V AC panel?
It indicates the device can safely interrupt fault currents up to 10 000 amps at 230/400 V AC without damage.
