At 240 V it interrupts 187 kA; at 415 V and 440 V it delivers 121 kA; at 500 V it drops to 75.6 kA; at 690 V it still holds 17 kA. That is a high-interrupting-capacity (HIC) frame — suitable for main or tie positions in switchboards where fault current is high, not just a downstream feeder. The ETU350 trip unit is a basic electronic release — no communication, no voltage trigger, no ground-fault monitoring. The auxiliary trip module inside is order code 3VA9608-0BB11; the basic switch assembly is 3VA2340-5HN32-0AA0. If you need phase-failure detection or a communication module, this variant does not carry them — you would move to a 3VA2 with a different suffix. ## Panel integration — what fits where Dimensions: 110 mm deep, 138 mm wide, 248 mm tall. The storage limit is what governs handling and warehousing — the operating limit is what matters for the panel environment.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2340-5HN32-0BC0 SENTRON MCCB, 400 A, 3-Pole, ETU3","metaDescription":"Siemens 3VA2340-5HN32-0BC0 SENTRON molded case circuit breaker, 400 A rated continuous current, 3-pole, ETU350 electronic trip unit, breaking capacity 187 kA at 240 V.
