The drop to 75.6 kA at 500 V and 3.7 kA at 690 V is typical for this frame size; at 690 V you are near the upper voltage limit, so verify the available fault current at that voltage against the 3.7 kA ceiling. ## Integration notes The 3VA2116-5KQ46-0AA0 mounts in a standard panel or enclosure footprint. Dimensions are 181 mm height, 140 mm width, and 86 mm depth. The ETU860 trip unit is adjustable, and the N-conductor protection can be set to OFF or between 20 % and 100 % of the phase current. The communication function allows remote monitoring and control via the SENTRON bus system. Maximum power loss is 25.5 W.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2116-5KQ46-0AA0 SENTRON MCCB, 160 A, 4P, ETU860","metaDescription":"Siemens 3VA2116-5KQ46-0AA0 SENTRON molded case circuit breaker, 160 A, 4-pole, ETU860 electronic trip unit.
