Product details

It's built for line protection duty — the kind of main feeder or heavy branch breaker you'd spec into a distribution panel where fault current is serious. Breaking capacity is the headline here: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V, 36 kA at 440 V, and still 17 kA at 690 V. That means it can interrupt a massive fault without the arc blowing upstream — critical for transformer-secondaries or high-capacity bus risers where a smaller MCCB would cascade-fail. The 200 A rating holds flat from 40 °C to 50 °C, then derates to 194 A at 55 °C, 188 A at 60 °C, 182 A at 65 °C, and 176 A at 70 °C.

It'll drop into a DIN-rail or screw-mounted panel layout without re-drilling if you're swapping from another 3VA frame.

Frequently asked questions

What is 3VA1220-5EF42-0AG0's listed depth?

Depth is 70 mm, height 158 mm, width 140 mm — fits the standard 3VA frame footprint.

Will 3VA1220-5EF42-0AG0 drop into a panel specified around 3VA1010-2ED42-0AE0 without rewiring?

Both are SENTRON 3VA frames with the same 158 mm height, 140 mm width, and 70 mm depth, so the physical footprint is identical. However, the 3VA1220 is a 200 A, 4-pole breaker with a TM240 release, while the 3VA1010 is a lower-rated variant — verify the bus and lug ampacity match before swapping.
