Product details

The Siemens 3VA1116-3GE42-0AA0 is a SENTRON molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for 160 A continuous at 40 °C, with four poles and a TM220 thermal-magnetic overcurrent release. That 160 A rating holds steady up to 50 °C (–), then derates to 150 A at 70 °C — useful to know if this lands in a hot panel or next to other heat sources. The interrupting capacity hits 75.6 kA at 240 V and 52.5 kA at 415 V, so it handles substantial fault currents on industrial distribution without needing an upstream current-limiting fuse.

Footprint is 101.6 mm wide by 130 mm tall by 70 mm deep (–). The 4-pole body takes up roughly 4 inches of DIN-rail width — check your enclosure fill factor if you're swapping into an existing panel. The N-conductor is protected at 100%, so this breaker handles full-phase neutral current without derating the neutral pole.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA1116-3GE42-0AA0 and get a price?

This part is sourced to order through independent distribution. Submit an RFQ; availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What are the interrupting ratings for 3VA1116-3GE42-0AA0?

75.6 kA at 240 V, 52.5 kA at 415 V, 32 kA at 440 V, and 11.9 kA at both 500 V and 690 V (–).

What is the continuous current rating at elevated temperatures?

160 A from 40 °C through 50 °C (–). It derates to 158 A at 55 °C, 155 A at 60 °C, 153 A at 65 °C, and 150 A at 70 °C (–).

Will 3VA1116-3GE42-0AA0 drop into a panel specified around a 3VA1010 frame?

No — the 3VA1116 is a larger frame size to accommodate the 160 A rating and higher interrupting capacities. The 3VA1010 frames top out at lower currents and have a smaller physical footprint. Panel cutouts and bus connections differ.
