FAQ

What is the purpose of the thermal adjustment dial on the GV2ME16?

The thermal adjustment dial allows you to set the overload trip current to match the motor's full load ampere (FLA) rating. For the GV2ME16, this can be set anywhere between 9 and 14 Amperes for precise motor protection.

Yes, it can be used for single-phase motors. To do this, you must wire the input and output phases in series through all three poles of the circuit breaker to ensure the thermal protection mechanism functions correctly.

As indicated on the device label, the ultimate breaking capacity (Icu) at 400/415V is 15 kA, providing robust protection against high-level short circuits.
