Its ETU560 electronic trip unit supports adjustable short-time delay (tr 0.5 to 25 s, tsd up to 0.5 s) and ground-fault monitoring via summation current formation on the L-conductor, which suits it for feeder protection where coordination with downstream breakers matters. Breaking capacity reaches 242 kA at 240 V AC, 187 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 121 kA at 500 V, and 3.8 kA at 690 V — the steep drop above 500 V means this breaker is sized for 240–500 V distribution, not 690 V main incomer duty. The 3-pole frame (105 mm wide, 181 mm tall, 86 mm deep) fits standard SENTRON 3VA2 panel cutouts and busbar arrangements. The 105 mm width matches the standard SENTRON 3VA2 mounting footprint — direct replacement for earlier 3VA2 frames without busbar rework. Communication function is present (likely via the ETU's integrated communication module or a plug-in accessory), enabling remote trip indication and power monitoring on a fieldbus network.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2163-6JQ32-0AA0 SENTRON MCCB, 63 A, 242 kA at 240","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2163-6JQ32-0AA0 molded case circuit breaker, 3-pole, 63 A, breaking capacity 242 kA at 240 V AC.
