The Siemens 3VA1116-6ED32-0AA0-ZD00 is a 3-pole IEC frame 160 molded case circuit breaker rated for 160 A continuous current, with a fixed thermal-magnetic TM210 trip unit. The fixed overload protection (Ir = 160 A) and fixed short-circuit pickup (Ii = 10 × In = 1600 A) simplify BOM consistency: every unit in the line delivers identical trip coordination, no field-adjustment risk.
Deployment context
The 70 kA SCCR at 415 V makes it suitable for main or branch protection in industrial switchboards where transformer or generator-fed fault levels are high — a right-sized spec for most plant distribution without over-specifying to the next frame class.
