The Siemens 3RV1011-1FA25 is a SIRIUS motor protection circuit breaker rated for 5 A continuous current with a Class 10 trip characteristic, designed to protect three-phase induction motors up to 1.5 kW at 400 V AC. Its breaking capacity reaches 100 kA at 240 V and 400 V AC, dropping to 3 kA at 500 V and 2 kA at 690 V — meaning it can handle high fault currents on low-voltage distribution but needs coordination upstream at higher voltages.
Depth is 81 mm, height 90 mm — the 81 mm depth is worth noting for shallow enclosures where cable bend radius behind the breaker is tight. Spring-loaded terminals on the main circuit accept 2x (0.25... 2.5 mm²) solid or stranded conductors (AWG 24...14), so no screw torque verification needed during commissioning.
