The 3VA1120-5GE46-0AA0 delivers 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V, 75.6 kA at 440 V, and 17 kA at both 500 V and 690 V. That steep drop above 440 V is typical for an MCCB with a 20 A frame — the arc extinction energy scales with voltage, and the 17 kA at 690 V is the real limit for 690 V line-side faults.
At 60 °C it derates to 19 A, and holds that through 70 °C. No derating needed for most panel environments — only tight enclosures or adjacent heat sources push it past 55 °C.
187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V, 75.6 kA at 440 V, and 17 kA at 500 V and 690 V.
20 A continuous, 4-pole, with a TM220 thermal-magnetic overcurrent release.
