Breaking capacity reaches 100 kA Icu at 230/240 V AC, dropping to 50 kA at 400/415 V AC – adequate for most industrial fault levels. The unit is DIN-rail or panel mountable (2 x M4 screws) and occupies 45 mm width on rail. Power dissipation is 1.8 W per pole; electrical durability is 100,000 cycles under AC-3 at 415 V. Ambient storage range -40 to 80 °C covers warehouse extremes. ## Lifecycle & Sourcing Status Multiple compliance documents are available – the breaker carries EN/IEC 60947-2, EN/IEC 60947-4-1, UL 60947-4-1, CSA C22.2 No 60947-4-1, and IEC/EN 60335-2-40 Annex JJ. These satisfy most global project requirements for motor protection components. ## Key Ratings – Fit for Your BOM Rated operational voltage 690 V AC, insulation voltage 690 V AC. The magnetic trip set at 253.4 A is fixed, and AC-3 and AC-3e categories match induction motor starting duty. Terminals accept up to 6 mm² solid or 4 mm² flexible with ferrule, torque 1.7 N·m. IK04 impact protection and IP20 finger-safe terminals suit panel installation.","metaTitle":"Schneider GV2L16 Motor Circuit Breaker, 14 A, 3-Pole","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric TeSys Deca GV2L16 motor circuit breaker, 14 A In, 3-pole, magnetic trip, breaking capacity 100 kA at 230/240 V AC.
