The 250 A rating holds at ambient temperatures up to 50 °C without derating — at 55 °C it's 238 A, at 60 °C it's 225 A, at 65 °C it's 213 A, and at 70 °C it's 200 A. Breaking capacity is 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 79 kA at 500 V, and 5.1 kA at 690 V. That 121 kA at 415 V gives serious fault-current headroom for most industrial distribution boards — you're not bumping up against the SCCR limit on a typical 415 V supply.
Trip unit, auxiliaries, and communication
The integrated auxiliary trip is order code 3VA9608-0BB25. The basic switch supplied is 3VA2225-5JP32-0AA0. The mechanical endurance is 20,000 operations (latching).
The depth of 86 mm means it clears most standard enclosure depths, but check gland-plate clearance if you're mounting it near the back wall. No trip indicator, no voltage trigger, no phase failure detection, and no ground fault monitoring on this variant.
