Product details

Breaking capacity and what it means for your fault level

ETU350 trip unit and N-conductor protection

The electronic trip unit is an ETU350, which gives adjustable long-time, short-time, and instantaneous protection curves. The N-conductor protection is configurable: OFF, 50 %, or 100 % of the phase current — useful on 4-wire systems where you need to match the neutral to the load balance. No undervoltage release or shunt trip is fitted as standard; those are field-addable accessories if your circuit demands remote tripping.

It mounts via screw terminals onto a backplate or DIN-rail adapter (the SENTRON 3VA range uses a common mounting footprint). If it goes into a wet or dusty panel, the enclosure provides the IP rating, not the breaker itself.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy the 3VA2116-0HN42-0AA0 and get a price?

We source this breaker to order against an RFQ. Submit a request for quote; we confirm availability and current pricing at that time.

What is the breaking capacity of this MCCB at 415 V?

It interrupts 440 kA at 415 V AC, and 187 kA at 690 V AC — sufficient for high-fault industrial services.

What is the width and depth of the 3VA2116-0HN42-0AA0?

Width is 140 mm, depth is 86 mm, height is 181 mm. These dimensions match the standard SENTRON 3VA 4-pole footprint.
