Engineered for commercial power distribution, the Siemens 3VA5180-4ED31-0AA0 is a 3-pole, 80A molded case circuit breaker providing reliable LI protection. This 3VA51 frame breaker installs into Siemens P1, P2, and P3 panelboards. It serves as a direct replacement for legacy ED63B080 and ED43B080 breakers for seamless upgrades. Equipped with a TM210 trip unit, it delivers fixed thermal and magnetic protection. It carries a Class S breaking capacity of 25kAIC at 480VAC.
Does this circuit breaker install directly into a panelboard out of the box?
No. While compatible with Siemens P1, P2, and P3 panelboards, the 3VA5180-4ED31-0AA0 requires a separate mounting strap kit or twin mounting kit specific to your panelboard type for proper installation.
Are the trip settings adjustable on the TM210 trip unit?
No, the TM210 is a fixed thermal-magnetic trip unit. Both the 80A thermal overload protection and the magnetic short-circuit protection (factory set at 800A, or 10 times the continuous rating) are permanently fixed and cannot be adjusted in the field.
What does the "S" breaking capacity class indicate on this Siemens breaker?
The "S" breaking capacity class, indicated by the "4" in the catalog number 3VA5180-4ED31-0AA0, denotes Siemens' standard interrupting tier for this frame. It provides a maximum short-circuit interrupting rating of 25kA at 480VAC and 65kA at 240VAC.
Can this 80A breaker be used with HVAC equipment?
Yes, the Siemens 3VA5180-4ED31-0AA0 is HACR rated per UL standards, meaning it is certified and approved for safe use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration systems.
Is the 3VA5180-4ED31-0AA0 suitable for reverse feed applications?
Yes. Like all Siemens 3VA5 thermal-magnetic circuit breakers, this unit is UL listed for reverse feed configurations. This allows power to be safely supplied to either the top or bottom terminals depending on your panel layout.
Can I add auxiliary switches or shunt trips to this breaker?
Yes, the Siemens 3VA51 series supports a variety of field-installable internal accessories. Components like auxiliary switches, alarm switches, shunt trips, and undervoltage releases can be installed directly inside the breaker housing.
What frame size is the 3VA5180-4ED31-0AA0 built on?
This 80A breaker is built on the Siemens 3VA51 UL frame, which has a maximum continuous current rating of 125A. This compact 3-pole footprint helps save critical space in panelboards and switchboards.
