The 6 kA breaking capacity (IEC 60898) tells you it can safely interrupt a fault current up to 6 kA at 230 V AC; under UL 1077 and CSA C22.2 No. 235, that figure is 5 kA, which governs panel builds destined for North American jurisdictions. The 2-pole body is wired 1P+N — one thermally-magnetic pole on the line, one switched neutral pole — so it provides overcurrent protection on the phase and disconnects the neutral when the breaker is opened. Neutral conductor switching is a built-in function, not an add-on accessory.
Deployment context and panel fit
Mounting position is any, which simplifies panel layout in tight enclosures.
Environmental range and materials
Rated for ambient temperatures from -40 °C to 75 °C, with humidity derating: max 95 % RH at 55 °C, 55 % at 70 °C, 35 % at 75 °C. Vibration resistance per IEC 60068-2-6: ±1 mm at 5–25 Hz, 50 m/s² at 25–150 Hz, so it holds up on machine-mounted panels near rotating equipment.
