The 3VA1096-2ED32-0AF0: The 16 kA Icu at 415 V is the maximum short-circuit current the breaker can safely interrupt once (Ics is typically 50–75% of Icu on this frame; verify for your selective coordination study). The fixed Ir=16 A means no thermal-adjustment dial — the overload curve is locked, which simplifies ordering but removes field flexibility if the load current changes. With Ii fixed at 10 x In (160 A magnetic trip), this breaker is suited for general distribution and resistive or moderate motor loads; high-inrush loads may need a higher magnetic setting or a different trip unit.
