Product details

The Siemens SENTRON 3VA1080-4ED42-0BH0 is a 4-pole molded case circuit breaker rated at 80 A continuous current at 40 °C ambient, with a breaking capacity of 121 kA at 240 V AC.

Breaking Capacity and Current Ratings

Rated uninterrupted current holds at 80 A from 40 °C up to 50 °C, then derates gradually to 74 A at 70 °C — useful for high-ambient enclosures without oversizing the frame. Breaking capacity drops with system voltage: 75.6 kA at 415 V, 52.5 kA at 440 V, and 11.9 kA at 690 V.

Built-In Auxiliary and Release Options

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 3VA1080-4ED42-0BH0 at 240 V?
