Front-side IP40 protection handles dry indoor environments; no trip indicator or undervoltage release is fitted on this variant. The breaker carries 16 A without derating up to 55 °C ambient. Above that, it drops to 15 A at 60 °C, 65 °C, and 70 °C — a 6% reduction that matters if the panel runs hot near a transformer or drive bank. Maximum power loss is 10.6 W at rated current, which helps with enclosure heat budget.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA1196-6GF46-0AA0 MCCB, 16 A, 4-Pole, 220 kA at 240","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA1196-6GF46-0AA0 molded case circuit breaker, 16 A, 4-pole, 220 kA at 240 V.
