The Siemens 3RV1011-1FA20 is a SIRIUS motor protection circuit breaker rated for 5 A continuous current with CLASS 10 trip characteristic, sized for a 1.5 kW motor at 400 V AC.
At 45 mm wide and 81 mm deep, it leaves 0 mm clearance needed backwards or to the side — you can pack these tight on a rail without derating for air gap.
Spring-loaded terminals on both the main current circuit and the auxiliary/control circuit. Main contacts accept 2x (0.25 to 2.5 mm²) solid or 2x (0.25 to 1.5 mm²) finely stranded with ferrule. AWG equivalent is 2x (24 to 14). No screw torque to check — push the wire in, it's clamped. The auxiliary switch slot is available (product extension yes), so you can add a signal contact without re-terminating the power side.
Breaking capacity drops with voltage: 100 kA at 240 V and 400 V AC, then 3 kA at 500 V, and 2 kA at 690 V. At 690 V AC-3 max, it's still rated — but the fault current it can interrupt is much lower. For a 400 V panel with high available fault current (say 65 kA), this breaker still has headroom.
Sourcing posture
This is a current-production Siemens part, sourced through independent distribution. If you need to fill a BOM line or replace a failed unit in a live panel, send the order code and quantity — we'll quote the best channel.
