That 115 A is the full-load current it carries without tripping — sized for a 37 kW motor at 400 V or up to 110 kW at 690 V, depending on the line voltage. The magnetic-electronic trip unit gives you adjustable magnetic pickup between 480 and 1120 A, so it handles inrush without nuisance trips while still clearing a bolted fault. Breaking capacity hits 50 kA Icu at 240 V, 25 kA at 415 V, and 10 kA at 500 V — all per IEC 60947-2. Connection pitch is 27 mm without spreaders, 35 mm with them, so you can land 16 to 95 mm² cable at 9 N·m on the lugs. The IP40 enclosure keeps dust out but isn't washdown-rated; it's meant for a clean, dry cabinet. That saves a separate isolator in the panel. ## Durability and environmental tolerance Mechanical durability is 40,000 cycles; electrical durability is 10,000 cycles at AC-3 at 440 V at half rated current, or 5,000 cycles at full rated current. That's typical for a motor-circuit breaker in a production line — you'll get years of daily starts before the contacts wear. Operating altitude goes to 5000 m, and it works in any mounting position. Storage temperature range is -50 to 85 °C, so it survives warehouse extremes. Climatic withstand per IACS means it handles marine-environment humidity cycles.","metaTitle":"Schneider GV4LE115B6 TeSys GV4 Motor Circuit Breaker, 115 A","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GV4LE115B6 TeSys GV4 motor circuit breaker, 115 A rated current, 50 kA breaking capacity, 37-110 kW motor power, IP40, current production.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Motor Protection Circuit Breakers (MPCB)"],"specifications":{"Depth":"116 mm","Range":"TeSys Deca","Width":"81 mm","Colour":"Grey (RAL 7016)","Height":"155 mm","Standards":"EN/IEC 60947-2 EN/IEC 60947-4-1","Rated duty":"Continuous conforming to IEC 60947-4-1","Control type":"Toggle","Product name":"TeSys GV4","Motor power kW":"37 kW at 400...415 V AC 50/60 Hz 45 kW at 400...415 V AC 50/60 Hz 55 kW at 400...415 V AC 50/60 Hz 45 kW at 500 V AC 50/60 Hz 55 kW at 500 V AC 50/60 Hz 75 kW at 500 V AC 50/60 Hz 75 kW at 660...690 V AC 50/60 Hz 90 kW at 660...690 V AC 50/60 Hz 110 kW at 660...690 V AC 50/60 Hz","Fire resistance":"960 °C conforming to IEC 60695-2-11","lifecycle_stage":"current","Connection pitch":"27 mm without spreaders 35 mm with spreaders","Pollution degree":"3","Range of product":"TeSys GV4","Breaking capacity":"50 kA Icu at 220...240 V AC 50/60 Hz conforming to IEC 60947-2 25 kA Icu at 380...415 V AC 50/60 Hz conforming to IEC 60947-2 20 kA Icu at 440 V AC 50/60 Hz conforming to IEC 60947-2 10 kA Icu at 500 V AC 50/60 Hz conforming to IEC 60947-2","Device short name":"GV4L","Poles description":"3P","Tightening torque":"9 N.m for cable 16...95 mm² 5 N.m for cable 1.5...10 mm²","Climatic withstand":"conforming to IACS E10","Device application":"Motor protection","Operating altitude":"5000 m","Operating position":"Any position","[In] rated current":"115 A","Trip unit technology":"Magnetic Electronic","Utilisation category":"Category A conforming to IEC 60947-2 AC-3 conforming to IEC 60947-4-1","Electrical durability":"10000 cycles for AC-3 at 440 V In/2 5000 cycles for AC-3 at 440 V In","Mechanical durability":"40000 cycles","Mechanical robustness":"Vibrations: +/- 1 mm 2...13.2 Hz conforming to IEC 60068-2-6 Vibrations: 0.7 gn 13.2...100 Hz conforming to IEC 60068-2-6 Shocks: 15 gn 11 ms conforming to IEC 60068-2-27","Maximum Operating Rate":"25 cyc/h","Connections - terminals":"Lugs-ring terminals","IK degree of protection":"IK07 conforming to IEC 62262","IP degree of protection":"IP40 conforming to IEC 60529","Magnetic tripping current":"480...1120 A","Product or component type":"Motor circuit breaker","Suitability for isolation":"Yes conforming to IEC 60947-1","Power dissipation per pole":"6.1 W","[Ui] rated insulation voltage":"800 V AC 50/60 Hz conforming to IEC 60947-2","[Ue] rated operational voltage":"690 V AC 50/60 Hz conforming to IEC 60947-2","Ambient air temperature for storage":"-50...85 °C","Ambient air temperature for operation":"-25...70 °C","[Uimp] rated impulse withstand voltage":"8 kV conforming to IEC 60947-2","[Ith] conventional free air thermal current":"115 A conforming to IEC 60947-4-1"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":null,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":null,"sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/za/en/product/GV4LE115B6/motor-circuit-breaker-tesys-gv4-3p-115a-icu-25ka-magnetic-lugs-terminals/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GV4LE115B6/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What motor power does the GV4LE115B6 cover?","answer":"It covers 37 kW at 400 V, up to 110 kW at 690 V, depending on the line voltage and configuration.
