Product details

What this 400A MCCB carries

The Siemens 3VA2340-6JP42-0BC0 is a 4-pole IEC frame 400 molded case circuit breaker with breaking capacity class H — meaning it interrupts 85 kA at 415 V AC without damage. That SCCR headroom covers most industrial distribution panels downstream of a transformer, giving the site electrical engineer selectivity margin against a 50 kA fault on the secondary side. The ETU550 trip unit is LSI configurable: overload protection Ir adjustable from 160 A to 400 A, short-time pickup Isd from 0.6 to 10× In, and instantaneous Ii from 1.5 to 10× In. The description also notes an undervoltage release (24 V DC) accessory compatible with 3VA1 and 3VA20 frames, plus up to 2 auxiliary switches — these are field-fit, so the commissioning engineer should verify the UVR coil voltage matches the control circuit before energizing.

Frequently asked questions

What is the breaking capacity of this MCCB?

Icu = 85 kA at 415 V AC, breaking capacity class H per IEC 60947-2. That rating governs its ability to safely clear a fault without upstream coordination failure.

Where can I buy 3VA2340-6JP42-0BC0 and get a price?

This part is sourced to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Submit a request with your quantity and target delivery date; availability and pricing are confirmed at quote time.

What trip unit does this breaker use?

ETU550 with LSI protection: overload Ir = 160–400 A, short-time pickup Isd = 0.6–10× In, instantaneous Ii = 1.5–10× In. Neutral protection adjustable OFF to 100%.
