Its 187 kA breaking capacity at 240 V AC handles high-fault utility feeds; at 415 V and 440 V it still clears 121 kA, dropping to 75.6 kA at 500 V and 3.7 kA at 690 V. That puts it squarely in the high-interrupting class for industrial distribution, not a light-duty branch breaker. Communication function is onboard, so it can feed status back to a PLC or BMS without a separate interface module.
At 240 V AC it clears 187 kA; at 415 V and 440 V it clears 121 kA. At 500 V it drops to 75.6 kA, and at 690 V to 3.7 kA.
63 A continuous, with no derating required from 40 °C through 70 °C ambient.
