The 3VA1110-5EF32-0AB0: The interrupting capacity is the standout spec for a 100 A frame: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V, 75.6 kA at 440 V, and 17 kA at 690 V. That SCCR range means this breaker can sit ahead of a step-down transformer or a high-fault panel without cascading upstream — it safely clears a bolted fault at those levels. Three poles, TM240 thermal-magnetic overcurrent release, no undervoltage release, no ground-fault monitoring, no communication module. The auxiliary contact version is 2 auxiliary switches HP — that covers status feedback to a PLC or remote indication without an add-on module. IP40 on the front face keeps dust out of the mechanism in a typical panel environment.
Mounting & integration
Panel footprint: 76.2 mm wide, 130 mm tall, 70 mm deep. The width matches the standard 3-pole MCCB form factor on a DIN rail or bolted to a mounting plate. The 2 auxiliary switches are integral — no external wiring for the status contacts needed. Verify the TM240 release curve coordinates with downstream breakers for selective tripping.
