Product FAQs
6 answers
What is the adjustable amperage range for the 3VA6340-5HM31-0AA0?
The integrated ETU330 electronic trip unit allows the continuous current, or Long-Time setting, to be adjusted from 160A up to the maximum 400A frame rating.
What does the LIG trip function code indicate on this breaker?
The LIG designation means the electronic trip unit provides adjustable Long-Time, Instantaneous, and Ground-Fault protection. This allows for precise coordination against overloads, short circuits, and ground faults.
Which Siemens panelboards are compatible with this 400A breaker?
This 3VA6 frame circuit breaker is designed for use with Siemens P4 and P5 panelboards, as well as compatible Siemens switchboards and motor control centers.
Can the trip unit settings be configured in the field?
Yes, the ETU330 trip unit features rotary adjustment dials on the front face of the breaker. This allows electricians to easily configure the Long-Time, Instantaneous, and Ground-Fault pickup levels during installation.
What type of ground fault protection does this breaker provide?
The integrated Ground-Fault function provides equipment protection by monitoring for unintended leakage current to ground. If the ground fault current exceeds the configured pickup setting, the breaker will trip to prevent equipment damage.
Can the 3VA6340-5HM31-0AA0 replace older Siemens 400A breakers?
The 3VA6 series is the current generation replacement for legacy Siemens Sentron 400A frames. When retrofitting this breaker into an older enclosure, you may need an updated mounting strap kit designed specifically for the 3VA6 frame.
