This breaker carries communication and measurement functions, so it integrates into a monitored power distribution scheme without an add-on module. The 162 W maximum power loss matters for enclosure thermal design — at full load, that heat stays inside the panel, so verify your cabinet's dissipation budget against the rating.
The 3VA2463-5KP32-0AD0 delivers 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V, 75.6 kA at 500 V, and 9 kA at 690 V. The continuous current derates from 630 A at 40 °C down to 450 A at 70 °C ambient. If this breaker lands in a non-climate-controlled enclosure that hits 55 °C in summer, the usable rating drops to 540 A — factor that into your load schedule before committing the BOM line.
Dimensions are 248 mm height, 138 mm width, 110 mm depth. The base switch variant is 3VA2463-5KP32-0AA0; this order code adds three auxiliary switches (HQ type) for remote status indication. If your panel uses a PLC to monitor breaker position, those auxiliary contacts close the loop without a separate limit switch block.
