At 690 V it still interrupts 11.9 kA, so it can serve as a main or branch breaker in 480Y/277 V panels where available fault current exceeds 65 kA. Current rating holds at 16 A from 40 °C through 55 °C, then steps to 15 A at 60 °C and 65 °C, and stays at 15 A up to the 70 °C maximum operating temperature. That flat derating curve means the breaker can be stacked in a warm enclosure without losing a full amp step until the ambient passes 55 °C. Dimensions are 130 mm high, 76.2 mm wide, 70 mm deep — a standard SENTRON 3VA frame that fits Siemens panelboards and DIN-rail adapters. Maximum power loss is 13.1 W, which factors into enclosure thermal calculations when grouping several breakers.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA1096-4ED32-0DA0 SENTRON MCCB, 16A, 3-Pole, 121kA","metaDescription":"Siemens 3VA1096-4ED32-0DA0 SENTRON molded case circuit breaker, 16A rated at 40°C, 3-pole, 121kA breaking capacity at 240V AC.
