The 75.6 kA breaking capacity at 240 V gives solid fault-clearing headroom on low-voltage secondary sides; at 415 V it still interrupts 52.5 kA, so it handles high-fault panels without cascading upstream. ## Breaking capacity and thermal performance Breaking capacity drops with voltage: 75.6 kA at 240 V, 52.5 kA at 415 V, 32 kA at 440 V, and 11.9 kA at both 500 V and 690 V. The thermal curve holds 32 A flat from 40 °C through 50 °C, then derates to 31 A at 55 °C and 60 °C, and 30 A at 65 °C and 70 °C.","metaTitle":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA1132-3EF36-0AA0 MCCB, 32A, 3-Pole, TM240","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA1132-3EF36-0AA0 molded case circuit breaker, 32A rated at 40°C, 3-pole, TM240 release.
