Product details

Derating and thermal performance

Above that, it derates linearly: 375 A at 55 °C, 350 A at 60 °C, 325 A at 65 °C, and 300 A at 70 °C. The maximum power loss is 98.5 W, which factors into enclosure heat calculations.

Breaking capacity by voltage level

This MCCB's interrupting rating varies with system voltage: 242 kA at 240 V, 187 kA at both 415 V and 440 V, 121 kA at 500 V, and 7.5 kA at 690 V. The 690 V figure looks low, but that's typical for a 400 A frame at that voltage — verify your fault current at the point of installation doesn't exceed 7.5 kA if you're running a 690 V system. For standard 400 V class distribution, 187 kA gives generous headroom.

Auxiliaries and communication

It also supports communication functions — meaning it can integrate with a BMS or SCADA system for remote monitoring and tripping. The base switch variant is 3VA2340-6JP32-0AA0 if you need a reference for spare aux kits.

Frequently asked questions

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

187 kA at 415 V, which covers most industrial distribution fault levels with significant headroom.

Does this breaker include an undervoltage release?

Yes, the 3VA2340-6JP32-0CH0 comes with a factory-fitted undervoltage release (UVR) as standard.

Where can I buy 3VA2340-6JP32-0CH0 and what is the lead time?
