Breaking capacity runs from 75.6 kA at 240 V down to 7.5 kA at 690 V, covering most industrial distribution fault levels.
The 50 A rating holds flat from 40 °C to 50 °C, then drops 1 A per 5 °C step to 45 A at 70 °C. For a panel that runs at 55 °C, the breaker is good for 49 A continuous — that 1 A difference matters if the load is right at the nameplate. Breaking capacity is voltage-dependent: 75.6 kA at 240 V, 52.5 kA at 415 V, 32 kA at 440 V, and 7.5 kA at both 500 V and 690 V.
