It provides motor protection with 100 kA breaking capacity across 230 V to 690 V AC, suitable for isolation per IEC 60947-1 and AC-3 switching for Category A applications. The 1 A line current is the full-load motor rating; magnetic pickup triggers at 15.1 A, handling start-up inrush without nuisance trip. Breaking capacity holds 100 kA Icu at all standard voltages (230/400/440/500/690 V AC), simplifying coordination in high-fault panels. Width 45 mm, depth 78.5 mm, height 89 mm – occupies a single pole slot. Screw terminals torque to 1.7 N·m, accepting solid or flexible wire up to 6 mm². Housing rated IP20 (finger-safe) and IK04 (impact 0.5 J). Climatic withstand IACS; fire resistance meets 960 °C glow-wire. Dark grey colour stable under UV in panel interiors. Production status is current. No last-time-buy or successor; this is the standard model for this specification. The part is in active manufacture and can be specified directly on a BOM without end-of-life risk. ## Compliance Listed to UL 60947-4-1, CSA C22.2 No 60947-4-1, and IEC 60947-2 / 60947-4-1. Also meets glow-wire requirements of IEC 60335-2-40 Annex JJ and IEC 60335-1 Clause 30.2 for appliance applications.","metaTitle":"Schneider GV2ME056 Motor Circuit Breaker, 1A 3P TeSys Deca","metaDescription":"Schneider GV2ME056 motor circuit breaker, 1 A rated, 3-pole, thermal-magnetic, 100 kA Icu breaking capacity, IP20.
