The ETU330 electronic trip unit with adjustable I-t characteristic gives selectivity coordination flexibility, and the N-conductor protection can be set to OFF or 100 % of phase rating, matching 4-wire system requirements. The ETU330 trip unit supports adjustable I²t curves, so you can dial in short-time delay to achieve zone selectivity with downstream 63 A feeders. The breaker measures 181 mm high, 140 mm wide, and 86 mm deep — a standard 4-pole MCCB footprint for Siemens 3VA frame sizes. The 4-pole design with adjustable N-conductor protection (OFF or 100 %) covers both 3-phase + N systems and pure 3-phase without neutral protection.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2163-0HM46-0AA0 SENTRON MCCB, 63A, 440kA, 4-Pole","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2163-0HM46-0AA0 molded case circuit breaker, 63 A rated current, 440 kA breaking at 415 V, 4-pole, ETU330.
