Product details

Breaking capacity — the real-world headroom

This MCCB delivers 187 kA breaking capacity at 240 V AC, 121 kA at 415 V, 75.6 kA at 440 V, and 17 kA at 690 V. At 690 V the 17 kA rating still covers most industrial motor branch circuits.

Above that, it derates linearly: 48 A at 55 °C, 47 A at 60 °C, 46 A at 65 °C, and 45 A at 70 °C. For a panel running hot near the 70 °C operating maximum, expect to lose 5 A of headroom — factor that into your load schedule.

The integrated auxiliary trip is order code 3VA9608-0BB11 — a separate line item if you need a spare or replacement for that subassembly.

The 76.2 mm width (3-inch footprint) is standard for 3-pole MCCBs in the 3VA frame size — it mounts on a DIN rail or panel-mount baseplate. Verify the depth clearance in your enclosure: 70 mm plus wiring space for the line and load lugs.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 3VA1150-5EF36-0BC0 at different voltages?

187 kA at 240 V AC, 121 kA at 415 V, 75.6 kA at 440 V, and 17 kA at 690 V.

What is the rated continuous current and how does it derate with temperature?

Rated 50 A continuous from 40 °C to 50 °C. Derates to 48 A at 55 °C, 47 A at 60 °C, 46 A at 65 °C, and 45 A at 70 °C.

What auxiliary contacts and releases come with this MCCB?

It includes an undervoltage release (UVR) and two auxiliary switches (HQ type). The integrated auxiliary trip subassembly is order code 3VA9608-0BB11.

Where can I buy 3VA1150-5EF36-0BC0 and what is the lead time?
