What the 160 A rating means for your panel
The TM240 thermal-magnetic release handles both overload (thermal curve) and short-circuit (magnetic trip) protection. Breaking capacity scales with system voltage: 75.6 kA at 240 V, 52.5 kA at 415 V, 32 kA at 440 V, and 10.5 kA at 690 V — so it interrupts faults up to those levels without upstream cascading.
The 3VA1116-3EF36-0DH0 measures 70 mm deep by 76.2 mm wide by 130 mm high — a standard MCCB footprint for DIN-rail or screw-mount panel installation.
