The Siemens SENTRON 3VA1132-4EF36-0AD0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) with a TM240 thermal-magnetic release, rated for 32 A continuous current across ambient temperatures up to 50 °C before any derating applies. Breaking capacity runs from 121 kA at 240 V down to 11.9 kA at 690 V — the 75.6 kA at 415 V is the figure most panel builders will use for IEC 60947-2 coordination studies on 400 V distribution.
The '240' designates the frame size, not the amp rating; actual continuous current is 32 A, held flat to 50 °C, then derating 1 A per 5 °C step through 70 °C. Dimensions are 130 mm height, 76.2 mm width, 70 mm depth — a standard 3-pole MCCB footprint that fits most DIN-rail or panel-mount enclosures without requiring a sub-panel adaptor.
