Product details

It carries a 63 A continuous rating at 40 °C and holds that same 63 A all the way up to 50 °C, then starts a gentle derate: 62 A at 55 °C, 61 A at 60 °C, 60 A at 65 °C, and 58 A at 70 °C (–). So in a warm panel that sees 60 °C inside, you still get 61 A of headroom — not a hard cliff. The overcurrent release is a TM240 thermal-magnetic type, meaning it uses a bimetal for overload protection and a solenoid for short-circuit, fixed at a 240 A magnetic trip threshold. That's a standard choice for feeder applications where you want thermal memory and a predictable instantaneous pickup.

Breaking capacity — what it can interrupt

This breaker's interrupting rating changes with system voltage, which matters when you're tying it into an existing bus. At 240 V it's rated 75.6 kA; at 415 V it's 52.5 kA; at 440 V it drops to 32 kA; and at 500 V or 690 V it holds at 11.9 kA. If your available fault current at the panelboard is 65 kA at 240 V, this breaker covers it; if you're on a 480 V system with 25 kA available, the 32 kA at 440 V rating covers that too.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of 3VA1163-3EF32-0BA0 at 415 V?

At 415 V the interrupting rating is 52.5 kA. At 240 V it is 75.6 kA, at 440 V it is 32 kA, and at 500 V or 690 V it is 11.9 kA.

Where can I buy 3VA1163-3EF32-0BA0?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What does the TM240 release mean on this breaker?

TM240 is a thermal-magnetic overcurrent release: the thermal element (bimetal) protects against overloads, and the magnetic element trips instantaneously at 240 A for short-circuit protection. It is a fixed-trip design, not adjustable.
