The 16 A rating holds steady from 40 °C up to 55 °C, then derates to 15 A at 60 °C and above, so in a warm panel you lose an amp. The interrupting rating is the headline: 121 kA at 240 V AC, dropping to 75.6 kA at 415 V, 52.5 kA at 440 V, and 11.9 kA at both 500 V and 690 V.
The 3VA1196-4EE42-0AA0 measures 130 mm high, 101.6 mm wide, and 70 mm deep.
121 kA at 240 V AC. At 415 V it's 75.6 kA, at 440 V it's 52.5 kA, and at 500 V or 690 V it's 11.9 kA.
