What it is and what the ratings mean
The 3VA1125-6ED42-0AA0-ZD00 is a Siemens 3VA1 IEC frame 160 molded-case circuit breaker with a 70kA interrupting capacity at 415V — that's breaking capacity class H, meaning it can safely clear faults up to 70kA without upstream cascade, a real help when coordinating a panel's SCCR. It's a 4-pole unit with line protection via a TM210 thermal-magnetic trip unit; overload protection is fixed at Ir=25A and short-circuit protection is fixed at Ii=12.8 x In (320A). The N conductor is unprotected — it tracks phase current but doesn't trip on its own — and it includes a nut keeper kit for DC Power OEM builds in China.
Where it goes and how it mounts
This breaker mounts into a standard Siemens 3VA1 panelboard or distribution board — the IEC frame 160 footprint is common across the 3VA1 line. The nut keeper kit is a nice touch for OEM panel builders in China: it keeps the busbar connection hardware captive during assembly, saving time on the line.
