The Siemens SENTRON 3VA2010-5JQ32-0BA0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for 100 A continuous current at 40 °C ambient, with a full-scale value of 100 A and an adjustable thermal-magnetic trip starting at 20 A.
Breaking capacity across voltages — what the numbers mean
This MCCB delivers 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 3 kA at 690 V.
Thermal performance and ambient derating
That's unusual for an MCCB; many frames start shedding current above 40 °C. Maximum power loss is 16 W, which is modest for a 100 A frame and keeps panel heat rise manageable.
Built-in auxiliaries and communication
This variant includes an undervoltage release (UVR) — the design of the auxiliary release is specifically an undervoltage release. It also has a communication function, so it can report status or accept remote commands over a bus — useful for a BMS or SCADA-connected distribution panel. There is no voltage trigger or trip indicator on this specific order code.
