Maxi m u m volta ge for which the circuit breaker is designed, and the upper l i m it for operation.2. K is l isted for i nformational pu rposes on ly. For circuit breakers rated o n a " kA basis;'the Voltage Range Factor is 1.0.3. 3000FC indicates that fan cooling may be required i n the switchgear structure to achieve this rating.4 .
