Product details

The IP40 front protection means it's fine for indoor panel mounting where no hose-down is expected.

At 415 V the 121 kA interrupting rating puts this MCCB in the high-fault tier — suitable for main or tie breakers in industrial distribution where fault currents can hit 100 kA. The curve drops to 75.6 kA at 500 V and 4.5 kA at 690 V, so verify the available fault current at your system voltage.

The 160 A frame size uses lug terminals rated for the full continuous current; torque specs per the installation sheet.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of this MCCB at 415 V?

121 kA at 415 V, which covers most industrial main-breaker applications. At 240 V it's 187 kA, and at 500 V it drops to 75.6 kA.

What trip unit does 3VA2216-5HN42-0AA0 use?

The ETU350 electronic overcurrent release with adjustable I²t curves for selective coordination.

Where can I buy 3VA2216-5HN42-0AA0 and how is it quoted?
