At 690 V it still breaks 17 kA, which covers most industrial line-to-line faults. The thermal derating curve is published: it holds a full 16 A up to 50 °C, then steps down to 15.36 A at 55 °C, 15.04 A at 60 °C, 14.72 A at 65 °C, and 14.4 A at 70 °C. That's a shallow slope — you don't lose much headroom in a warm enclosure.
The 3VA1196-6EF32-0JA0 measures 70 mm deep, 76.2 mm wide, and 130 mm tall — that's a standard MCCB footprint for this current class. It ships without auxiliary contacts or a ground-fault module, but the design accepts the 3VA9688-0BL32 integrated auxiliary trip as a field-addable option. The shunt trip (STL) is built in — that's the voltage trigger function. If you need those, you're looking at a different configuration within the 3VA family.
