Siemens 3VA1220-5MH32-0AF0 — SENTRON MCCB, 200 A, Starter Protection
This is the part you spec when you need a 200 A frame that holds its rating from 40 °C all the way to 50 °C without derating — at 55 °C it still carries 194 A, and at 70 °C it delivers 176 A, so the thermal curve is flat enough for most panel environments without oversizing. The interrupting capacity is what you need to check against your available fault current: 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V, 75.6 kA at 440 V, 30 kA at 500 V, and 4.5 kA at 690 V.
Integration — Panel Fit and Thermal Management
The trip indicator is present, so you get a visual flag on a fault without needing to meter the load side. The design is explicitly for starter protection — meaning it's coordinated for motor-starting inrush and overload profiles, not just distribution feeder duty.
