The breaker measures 140 mm wide, 181 mm high, and 86 mm deep — a standard footprint for a 160 A frame in the 3VA platform. Front IP40 protection means it's suited for enclosed panel mounting where incidental contact with tools or wires is the main concern, not washdown. ## Thermal performance across temperature","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2116-8JP46-0AA0 SENTRON MCCB, 160 A, 4-Pole, ETU5","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2116-8JP46-0AA0 molded case circuit breaker, 160 A continuous, 4-pole, ETU550 trip unit.
