What this breaker delivers
The Siemens 3VA1163-5GE42-0AA0-ZD00 is a 4-pole IEC frame 160 circuit breaker with a 63 A thermal-magnetic trip (TM220, ATFM). Overload protection is adjustable from 44 A to 63 A, and the short-circuit pickup is fixed at 10 x In. The breaking capacity class M delivers 55 kA at 415 V — enough for high-fault panelboards and distribution downstream of a transformer.
What the ratings mean for your panel
The 55 kA Icu at 415 V means this breaker can safely interrupt fault currents up to that level without upstream fuses needing to clear first — a key spec for high-fault installations. The 63 A frame with adjustable Ir (44–63 A) lets you dial in the exact motor or feeder load without swapping the breaker body. The 4-pole configuration covers three-phase plus full neutral protection at 100%, which is required for some DC power OEM builds in China, as noted in the description.
