115 A rated current — motor protection threshold and load coverage
The GV4PEM115S6 is a 3-pole motor circuit breaker from the TeSys GV4 range, rated at 115 A line current. That rating sets the full-load current ceiling for the motor it protects — the breaker's thermal-magnetic and electronic trip unit responds to sustained overloads and short-circuit events up to that threshold. Motor power coverage spans 37 kW at 400 V up to 110 kW at 690 V, so the same breaker frame serves a wide band of motor sizes depending on the supply voltage. The magnetic trip is fixed at 1955 A, which is about 17× In — typical for a motor-starting inrush without nuisance trips on start.
120 kA breaking capacity — SCCR headroom for high-fault panels
At 480Y/277 V the rating is 65 kA — still well above the typical 10–18 kA available fault current in most industrial panels. This gives the panel designer headroom for high-SCCR buswork without cascading upstream fuses.
Active production — no lifecycle risk for BOM freeze
For a contract manufacturer managing multiple customer AVLs, this part sits on Schneider's standard catalogue and is widely accepted across industrial OEM specs. No deviation or change request is needed for new builds that specify TeSys GV4 motor protection.
Panel fit and connection pitch
Dimensions are 6.1 in (155 mm) high, 3.2 in (81 mm) wide, 4.6 in (116 mm) deep. The connection pitch is 27 mm without spreaders, expanding to 35 mm with spreaders — this affects busbar spacing and cable lug alignment in the panel. Terminals accept lugs or ring terminals for 16–95 mm² cable on the line side and 1.5–10 mm² on the control side. IP40 enclosure means it is suitable for indoor panel use where no washdown or dust ingress is expected.
