It carries a full interrupting rating of 440 kA at 240 V, 330 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 220 kA at 500 V, and 52.5 kA at 690 V — so the same breaker covers low- and medium-voltage fault levels without a frame-size jump.
The 100 A frame is sized for main or large-feeder protection in a SENTRON distribution board. With a maximum power loss of 7.7 W, it adds minimal heat to the enclosure — no forced cooling needed in a standard ventilated panel. The ground-fault monitoring variant uses summation current sensing on the L-conductor, so it detects leakage without an external core-balance transformer.
For a site electrical engineer working through a coordination study: the 3VA2010-8HM36-0AA0's interrupting curve starts at 150 A minimum and reaches 1 200 A maximum, which gives a wide band for selective coordination with downstream 20 A or 63 A MCCBs. No undervoltage release or shunt trip is fitted on this variant, so remote tripping requires an external accessory.
