At 40 °C the continuous current rating is 63 A, and it holds that rating through 50 °C before the thermal derating curve begins to bite: 62 A at 55 °C, 61 A at 60 °C, 60 A at 65 °C, and 58 A at 70 °C. Breaking capacity climbs as the system voltage drops: 76 kA at 240 V AC, 53 kA at 415 V, 32 kA at 440 V, and 12 kA at 500 V. For a 480 V distribution panel, the 32 kA SCCR at 440 V is the nearest published point — expect the actual 480 V rating to sit between the 440 V and 500 V figures. The 4-pole construction (100% N-conductor protection) makes this breaker suitable for three-phase-plus-neutral systems where the neutral is fully rated, not just switched. Footprint is 101.6 mm wide by 130 mm tall by 70 mm deep — a standard MCCB cutout that drops into most SENTRON or 3VA-series panelboards without re-drilling the mounting plate.","metaTitle":"Siemens SENTRON 3VM1163-3GE42-0AA0 4-Pole MCCB, 63A, 76kA at","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VM1163-3GE42-0AA0 4-pole molded case circuit breaker, 63A rated at 40°C, 76kA breaking at 240V.
