The Siemens 3VA9503-0JG32 is a SENTRON TA3.2 circular conductor terminal voltage tap — a wire connector accessory designed to tap voltage from three parallel cables in a 3VA molded-case breaker panel. It accepts stranded copper or aluminum from 4/0 AWG up to 400 kcmil (225 A ampacity range) and finely stranded copper in the same range, making it a fit for feeder circuits where you need a control-wire takeoff without a separate terminal block.
The stranded rating of 4/0 – 400 kcmil: 225 tells you the terminal body is sized for conductors that carry up to 225 A in typical 75 °C terminations — that's the ampacity of 4/0 copper at that temperature, so the tap won't become a bottleneck on a 200–225 A feeder. The 1.02 inch stripped length (about 26 mm) is the insulation removal you need for full contact in the compression saddle; less strip risks partial insertion, more leaves bare conductor exposed past the insulator. The control wire tap means there's a dedicated smaller terminal on the same connector body for a control-circuit takeoff — you land the power cables in the main saddle and run a smaller wire (typically 14–10 AWG) from the tap to a relay coil or PLC input, saving a separate tap block on the DIN rail.
This accessory mounts directly onto the load-side lugs of a 3VA15 or 3VA25 molded-case circuit breaker (1000 A frame). It replaces the standard line/load lug kit when you need to split three outgoing cables into a voltage-tap point. The three-unit design handles three parallel conductors per phase — common on large feeders where a single 400 kcmil is too stiff to route, so you run two or three smaller cables in parallel.
