The ETU860M electronic trip unit provides adjustable trip classes (10A, 10/10E, 20/20E, 30/30E), phase failure detection, and ground-fault monitoring via summation current formation on the L-conductor. This makes it suited for protecting motor feeders where coordination with upstream devices and downstream starting curves matters. Breaking capacity reaches 187 kA at 240 V AC, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 3.7 kA at 690 V. The breaker includes a communication function, allowing integration into a higher-level monitoring or control scheme.

Frequently asked questions
Where can I buy 3VA2125-5MQ36-0AA0 and how do I get a price?
This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.
Will 3VA2125-5MQ36-0AA0 drop into a panel that was specified around 3VA2125-8KQ42-0AA0 without rewiring?
Both are 3-pole SENTRON MCCBs in the same frame size, so the footprint and mounting are identical. The deciding difference is the trip unit: this one carries an ETU860M electronic release with adjustable trip classes and ground-fault monitoring, while the 8KQ42 variant uses a different release. No rewiring is needed for the power connections, but the control wiring for the trip unit functions may differ.
What compliance documentation does this brand provide for 3VA2125-5MQ36-0AA0?
As a Siemens SENTRON product, it is designed to meet applicable IEC and UL standards for molded case circuit breakers. Specific declarations (RoHS, REACH, UL, IEC) are available from Siemens documentation or upon request with an RFQ.
