It's rated 320 A continuous at 40 °C (same at 45 °C and 50 °C, so you get full ampacity through typical enclosure ambient temps), then derates to 292 A at 70 °C. That's the number you care about for a hot panel in summer — the breaker doesn't force a derate until you're past 50 °C. Interrupting capacity is 121 kA at 240 V AC and 76 kA at 415 V AC — that's a high-fault rating for a 320 A frame, meaning it can handle a dead short on a transformer secondary or a large motor bank without the arc flash escalating upstream. The TM220 thermal-magnetic release gives a fixed thermal curve and magnetic trip, no electronics to fail, no adjustment knobs to walk off. Insulation voltage is 800 V, operating voltage 690 V AC, so it's comfortable on 480/277 V and 600 V systems with headroom. It's a straightforward thermal-magnetic main breaker: mount it, land the lugs, and it protects.

Frequently asked questions
What are the key ratings for this MCCB?
It is a 3-pole, 320 A continuous (at 40 °C) molded case circuit breaker with a TM220 thermal-magnetic release, rated 690 V AC, and interrupting 121 kA at 240 V AC and 76 kA at 415 V AC.
Where can I buy 3VM1332-4EE32-0AA0 and how is it quoted?
This part is sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time.
Will 3VM1332-4EE32-0AA0 drop into a panel specified around 3VA1112-5EE32-0AA0?
The 3VM1332-4EE32-0AA0 is a different frame series (3VM vs 3VA) with different dimensions and release options. It will not directly swap without verifying the mounting footprint, bus connections, and cable lug spacing against the existing panel layout.
