The 242 kA breaking capacity at 240 V tells you this thing clears serious fault current without upstream coordination headaches — it's sized for main or heavy feeder duty in a 480 V panel. ## Thermal derating and trip range Above that, it steps down: 600 A at 45 °C, 570 A at 50 °C, 540 A at 55 °C, 510 A at 60 °C, 480 A at 65 °C, and 450 A at 70 °C. If your panel runs hot — say a packed enclosure near a furnace line — the 50 °C derate to 570 A is the number to spec against, not the 40 °C sticker. The adjustable thermal-magnetic trip range spans 945 A minimum to 5,670 A maximum, so you can dial in the protection band for the downstream cable or bus. Breaking capacity drops as voltage climbs: 242 kA at 240 V, 187 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 121 kA at 500 V, and 9 kA at 690 V. The 690 V figure is the one to watch if you're on a 600 V class system — 9 kA is modest, so verify the available fault current at that voltage before committing the BOM line. Dimensions are 248 mm high, 138 mm wide, 110 mm deep. That's a standard SENTRON 3VA form factor — mounts on a mounting plate or DIN rail adapter. Communication function is onboard, so it can talk to a higher-level monitoring system without an add-on module.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2463-6KP32-0JH0 SENTRON MCCB, 630 A, 242 kA","metaDescription":"Siemens 3VA2463-6KP32-0JH0 SENTRON molded case circuit breaker, 630 A continuous, 242 kA at 240 V.

That's the standard 3VA2463 frame size — verify your enclosure backplate clearance, especially depth for the shunt trip wiring."},{"question":"Will 3VA2463-6KP32-0JH0 drop into a panel specified around 3VA2116-5JP32-0AE0?","answer":"No — the 3VA2463 frame is physically larger (248 x 138 x 110 mm vs the 3VA2116's smaller footprint). The mounting hole pattern and bus bar spacing differ. You'd need to re-drill the backplate and re-bus the line/load connections."},{"question":"How do I get current pricing and availability for 3VA2463-6KP32-0JH0?","answer":"Submit an RFQ through this listing.
