Interrupting capacity is the headline here: 75.6 kA at 240 V, 52.5 kA at 415 V, 32 kA at 440 V, and 11.9 kA at both 500 V and 690 V. The 11.9 kA floor at 690 V still clears most commercial service-entrance faults cleanly. Physically, it's 130 mm tall, 76.2 mm wide, and 70 mm deep — a compact footprint for a 3-pole MCCB at this interrupting level. ## Auxiliaries and release options The UVR is the factory-fitted release type — it drops the breaker when control voltage falls below the dropout threshold, which is standard for emergency-stop chains or undervoltage protection schemes. No ground-fault monitoring module is included on this order code, so if you need GF protection, you're looking at a different suffix. ## How it compares to the 3VA1110-5ED36-0AC0 The 3VA1110-5ED36-0AC0 is a smaller-frame 3VA breaker — typically lower interrupting capacity and a different accessory layout. The 3VA1196-3EF32-0CC0 sits in a larger frame to deliver that 75.6 kA interrupting at 240 V. If your panel was kitted around the 3VA1110 frame, the 3VA1196 won't drop in without checking the mounting footprint and bus-bar spacing. The 70 mm depth is similar, but the width and terminal centers may differ.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA1196-3EF32-0CC0 MCCB, 16 A, 75.6 kA at 240 V","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA1196-3EF32-0CC0 molded case circuit breaker, 3-pole, 16 A rated, 75.6 kA interrupting at 240 V.
