That flat thermal curve simplifies panel sizing: no need to uprate the frame for elevated ambient temperatures inside a crowded enclosure. That 440 kA figure at 415 V puts this breaker well into high-fault-duty territory — suitable for main or tie positions in large LV switchboards where upstream transformer ratings push prospective fault current past 100 kA. ## Electronic trip unit and protection functions Communication function is onboard — the ETU860 platform supports Modbus RTU and PROFIBUS via optional modules, making it suitable for power-monitoring schemes in a switchgear lineup. ## Physical dimensions and panel fit","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2163-0KQ32-0AA0 SENTRON MCCB, 63 A, 440 kA at 415","metaDescription":"Siemens 3VA2163-0KQ32-0AA0 SENTRON molded case circuit breaker, 63 A continuous, 440 kA breaking capacity at 415 V.
