Breaking capacity hits 440 kA at 240 V and still delivers 330 kA at 415 V and 440 V, dropping to 220 kA at 500 V and 52.5 kA at 690 V — so it handles high-fault utility feeds and large motor branch circuits without cascading upstream. The 138 mm width matches the typical 3-pole SENTRON slot; if you're replacing an older 3VA1 or 3VF breaker, check the busbar lug spacing and mounting hole pattern, but the 3VA2 series shares the same mechanical envelope. No DIN-rail mounting — these bolt directly to a backplate or busbar assembly. ## Trip unit and coordination The ETU850 release is the top-tier electronic trip unit in the 3VA2 range, offering full selectivity (LSIG) with adjustable pickup and delay settings. Communication function is built in — no external module required for basic remote status and trip indication, which saves a slot in the panel and simplifies wiring. The absence of a trip indicator on the front face (: No) means you'll rely on the communication link or the handle position for local status; factor that into your maintenance walk-down procedure.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2325-8KP32-0AA0 SENTRON MCCB, 250 A, 3-Pole, ETU8","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2325-8KP32-0AA0 molded case circuit breaker, 250 A continuous, 3-pole, ETU850 release, 440 kA at 240 V.
