That thermal curve means the breaker can be loaded to nameplate in most ventilated enclosures; only tight-gland or high-ambient panels need the derated figure. Breaking capacity steps down with system voltage: 121 kA at 240 V, 75.6 kA at 415 V, 52.5 kA at 440 V, 17 kA at 500 V, and 11.9 kA at 690 V. For a 480 V panel (common in North American industrial) the 52.5 kA at 440 V is the closest published figure — still well above typical 25–35 kA available fault currents. No ground-fault monitoring or communication module on this build.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA1220-4EF42-0CH0 SENTRON MCCB, 200 A, 4-Pole, 70 m","metaDescription":"Siemens 3VA1220-4EF42-0CH0 SENTRON molded case circuit breaker, 200 A at 40 °C, 4-pole, 121 kA at 240 V.
