The VW3A58813 is a remote power terminal, Size 3, from the Schneider Altivar accessory range. It was used to extend or relocate the power connection point on compatible Altivar variable-speed drives, typically in panel layouts where the drive's own terminals were inaccessible or where a separate disconnect point was needed for maintenance isolation.
This part is officially obsolete per the manufacturer's lifecycle record.
As a Size 3 remote power terminal, it was designed for higher-current Altivar drive frames. The terminal block itself is a pass-through assembly — no active electronics, no firmware, no fieldbus interface. The critical spare buyer holding a legacy drive line without one of these in the cabinet knows the risk: a failed terminal block on an obsolete drive can idle a line for weeks while sourcing a replacement through the broker channel.
