Product details

Kit is complete: the breaker, UVR, and comms interface are all in the carton.

Above that, the frame derates linearly: 375 A at 55 °C, 350 A at 60 °C, 325 A at 65 °C, and 300 A at 70 °C. The 70 °C ceiling matches the maximum operating temperature spec, so the breaker itself is fine; the load current is what drops.

Breaking capacity by voltage level

This MCCB delivers 242 kA at 240 V, 187 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 121 kA at 500 V, and 7.5 kA at 690 V. For 690 V applications, the 7.5 kA figure limits it to low-fault installations or requires upstream current-limiting fuses.

Verify the enclosure depth against the 110 mm plus wire-bending space — standard 200 mm deep enclosures work, shallow troughs may not.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2340-6KP32-0BA0 and how is it quoted?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — no stock figures or lead-time numbers on this page.

What is the continuous current rating of 3VA2340-6KP32-0BA0?

400 A continuous at 40 °C ambient, holding flat through 50 °C, then derating to 300 A at 70 °C.

What breaking capacity does this MCCB provide at 240 V and 415 V?

242 kA at 240 V and 187 kA at 415 V, making it suitable for high-fault service-entrance or feeder applications at those voltage levels.

Does 3VA2340-6KP32-0BA0 include an undervoltage release?

Yes, it ships with an integrated undervoltage release (UVR) as the auxiliary release — no separate module to order.
