The Siemens 3VA1116-4ED46-0AA0 is a molded-case circuit breaker (MCCB) from the SENTRON 3VA1 series, engineered for reliable line and system protection in low-voltage distribution networks. Designed for industrial and commercial power systems, it provides overload and short-circuit protection with a thermal-magnetic trip unit, supporting safe and efficient isolation of circuits. Its compact three-pole configuration and modular 3VA accessory compatibility make it suitable for feeders, panel boards, and general infrastructure power distribution applications.
The 3VA1116-4ED46-0AA0 is suitable for distribution boards, panel feeders, industrial power systems, commercial buildings, and general utility supply installations. It supports line protection, system isolation, and electrical equipment safety, making it ideal for MCCs, infrastructure projects, factory power distribution, and integrated switchgear environments where reliable circuit protection and modular expansion are required.
