The 3-pole design handles three-phase line protection, and the interrupting capacity tells you where it can safely clear a fault without upstream cascading: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 3 kA at 690 V. That 187 kA figure at 240 V is the key number for high-fault panels fed close to a transformer; the drop to 3 kA at 690 V means this frame is sized for 400–500 V distribution, not 690 V motor circuits.
Built-in undervoltage release and communication
The communication function allows integration into a plant-wide monitoring system, so a panel builder can wire this into a PLC or energy management bus without adding a separate comm module. The basic switch assembly is order code 3VA20105KP320AA0, which is the internal sub-assembly if you ever need to replace just the switching mechanism rather than the whole breaker.
