It protects circuits against overload and short-circuit, and is rated for breaking capacities of 50 kA at 400 V AC per IEC 60947-2 and 5 kA per UL 1077.
Rated operational voltage is 400 V AC (multi-phase or single-phase up to 440 V), and 60 V DC (max 72 V). The DC rating of 15 kA per IEC 60947-2 covers battery-backed or rectifier-fed circuits. The 5 kA UL 1077 rating is for supplementary protection in North American panels; it is not a branch-circuit rated breaker under UL 489.
Mounting position is any orientation.
