Its interrupting capacity hits 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V, so it handles high-fault utility feeds or transformer secondaries without cascading upstream. The 86 mm depth, 105 mm width, and 181 mm height fit standard MCCB panel footprints. ## Breaking capacity across voltage — selectivity planning At 240 V the 187 kA rating covers most North American secondary-side faults. ## Panel integration — 3-pole, 63 A, shunt trip Mounts in a standard MCCB panel cutout. The 105 mm width and 86 mm depth leave room for side-by-side pole fill and busbar routing. The shunt trip (STL) allows remote tripping from an E-stop or safety PLC; no undervoltage release is fitted. Communication function enables integration with a BMS or SCADA for trip logging. No ground-fault monitoring module is included — add externally if GF protection is required.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2163-5KP32-0JA0 SENTRON MCCB, 63 A, 3-Pole, 187 k","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2163-5KP32-0JA0 molded case circuit breaker, 63 A continuous, 3-pole, 187 kA breaking at 240 V.
