It handles AC-3 switching duty up to that current and offers a breaking capacity of 100 kA at 240 V AC (UL) and 50 kA at 415 V (IEC). Dimensions are 3.2 in wide by 6.1 in tall by 6.5 in deep, fitting a standard 27 mm pitch on the busbar (35 mm with spreaders). Terminals accept lugs or ring terminals; tightening torque is 9 Nm for the main circuit (95 mm² max) and 5 Nm for the control circuit (10 mm² max). Color is Gray RAL 7016. ## Protection features The trip unit provides electronic overload protection with phase failure sensitivity (IEC 60947-4-1) and magnetic short-circuit pickup at 212 A. Suitable for isolation per IEC 60947-1. Power dissipation is 4.6 W per pole, important for enclosure thermal management. IP40 enclosure, IK07 impact resistance.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GV4P12N6 Motor Circuit Breaker, 12.5 A, 3","metaDescription":"GV4P12N6 motor circuit breaker, 12.5 A, 3-pole, TeSys Deca.
