The breaker measures 105 mm wide, 181 mm tall, and 86 mm deep — a standard SENTRON 3VA frame that drops into the same DIN-rail or screw-mount footprint as other 3VA3 breakers. The 3-pole block occupies three modular 18 mm units on the rail. Maximum power loss is 4 W, so heat buildup in a sealed panel is minimal. ## What the interrupting ratings mean for your fault level At 500 V the rating is 75.6 kA; at 690 V it is 3.7 kA.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2163-5JQ32-0HA0 SENTRON MCCB, 63 A, 3-Pole, 187 k","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2163-5JQ32-0HA0 molded case circuit breaker, 63 A continuous, 3-pole, 187 kA interrupting at 240 V.
