The Schneider Electric GV2P05AE11TQ is a TeSys GV2 motor circuit breaker rated at 1 A, designed for protecting 0.25 kW motors at 400/415 V AC and 0.55 kW at 690 V AC. This is a 3-pole device in the TeSys Deca range, suited for motor branch circuits in control panels. It carries AC-3 and AC-3e utilisation categories per IEC 60947-4-1, which is the standard for switching squirrel-cage motors during starting and plugging. The electrical durability is rated at 100,000 cycles under AC-3 at 415 V, matching the mechanical durability figure.
The 45 mm width and 89 mm height fit standard motor-starter footprints. The rotary handle provides local on/off control and a clear visual position indicator. Screw-clamp terminals accept up to 6 mm² solid or 4 mm² flexible with ferrule, tightened to 1.7 N·m.
Compliance documentation is comprehensive: certified to EN/IEC 60947-2, EN/IEC 60947-4-1, UL 60947-4-1, and CSA C22.2 No 60947-4-1. It also meets IEC/EN 60335-2-40 Annex JJ and IEC/EN 60335-1 Clause 30.2 for fire resistance (960 °C glow-wire test). The climatic withstand conforms to IACS for marine environments.
