It carries 20 A continuously at 40 °C ambient, with no derating needed up to 55 °C — still 20 A — and only a 1 A drop at 70 °C, so it holds its rating across typical enclosure temperatures. Three poles handle three-phase circuits. The interrupting capacity is 121 kA at 240 V, 75.6 kA at 415 V, 52.5 kA at 440 V, and 11.9 kA at both 500 V and 690 V — high enough for most industrial service-entrance or feeder applications where fault currents are substantial.
