Breaking capacity hits 330 kA at 240 V, 242 kA at 415/440 V, and still carries 52.5 kA at 690 V — high enough for most industrial main feeders and large motor starters without needing a current-limiting fuse upstream. The overcurrent release is an ETU310M electronic trip unit, which gives you adjustable thermal-magnetic-like curves with better accuracy and selectivity coordination than a thermal-magnetic breaker. The basic switch core is order code 3VA2163-7MS32-0AA0; the integrated auxiliary trip is 3VA9688-0BL32 — useful to know if you're ordering spares or building a kit. Max power loss is 75 W.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2163-7MS32-0JL0 MCCB, 63 A, 330 kA at 240 V","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2163-7MS32-0JL0 molded case circuit breaker, 63 A rated continuous current, 330 kA breaking capacity at 240 V.
