Product details

It fits into distribution panels and switchboards where selectivity and coordination with downstream breakers matter — the ETU550 gives you adjustable long-time, short-time, instantaneous, and ground-fault (optional) curves, so you can tune it to the load without changing hardware. Insulation voltage is 800 V, and the interrupting capacity reaches 440 kA at 240 V, 330 kA at 415 V, and 220 kA at 500 V, so it handles high-fault utility feeds without cascading upstream.

The interrupting capacity at 690 V is 52.5 kA. At 440 V, the rating is 330 kA. The ETU550 release supports LSIG protection; the ground-fault monitoring version is not included on this variant.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2140-8JP36-0AA0 and how do I get a price?

This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Submit a request for quote (RFQ) to confirm current pricing and availability — no stock count or lead-time number on this page, but the supply chain is active.

Will 3VA2140-8JP36-0AA0 drop into a panel that was specified around 3VA2116-5JP32-0AE0 without rewiring?

Both are 3-pole SENTRON 3VA2 frame breakers with the same 105 mm width and 86 mm depth, so the physical footprint is identical. The difference is the trip unit: the 3VA2140-8JP36-0AA0 carries an ETU550 electronic release (adjustable curves), while the 3VA2116-5JP32-0AE0 uses a different release. If the panel wiring and bus bars are sized for 40 A continuous, it drops in — but verify the trip curve settings match the load coordination study.
