There's no such thing, as it depends on the make and model of the device. For a 60898 there should have it clearly marked, normally either as 6000 or 10000.

That's a very good reference indeed, but unless the OP actually looks at the device, which is a type C, I assume 60898, then it could be anything!!

3, 6, 10 even maybe 16kA...
