At 415 V it still breaks 121 kA, and at 440 V it holds 75.6 kA, so it handles high-fault scenarios common in industrial mains without cascading upstream. ## Line protection and auxiliary fit The 40.5 W max power loss at full load matters for enclosure thermal budgeting — factor it into your panel heat calculation. ## Panel integration Footprint is 70 mm deep, 76.2 mm wide, 130 mm tall — three poles in a 76.2 mm width is a compact fit for a 160 A MCCB. The 70 mm depth stays inside a 200 mm enclosure depth, leaving room for cables and busbars behind the door.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA1116-5EE32-0CH0 MCCB, 160A, 187kA @240V","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA1116-5EE32-0CH0 molded case circuit breaker, 160A, 3-pole, 187 kA breaking at 240 V.
