Engineered for industrial use, the Siemens NNX3B800 is a 3-pole, 800A molded case circuit breaker offering reliable low-voltage circuit protection. This bolt-on NG frame unit integrates into Siemens P4 and P5 panelboards, switchboards, and MCCs. For upgrades, it is replaced by the 3VA6580-5HN31-0AA0 when paired with a strap kit. The breaker features a thermal-magnetic trip unit with long-time and instantaneous functions. It is HACR rated and provides a 35kA interrupting rating at 480V.
What is the recommended replacement for the discontinued NNX3B800?
The Siemens NNX3B800 is a discontinued VL-series breaker. For upgrades or replacements, Siemens recommends the 3VA6580-5HN31-0AA0 molded case circuit breaker. You will also need the appropriate strap kit to retrofit the new 3VA breaker into existing P4 or P5 panelboards.
Are terminal lugs included with the NNX3B800?
No, terminal lugs are not included with this circuit breaker. Lugs must be purchased separately based on your specific conductor size and material requirements.
Can the NNX3B800 be used in reverse-feed applications?
Yes, this breaker is rated for reverse-feed applications, allowing line and load connections to be wired in either direction without compromising protection.
Is the NNX3B800 HACR rated?
Yes, this circuit breaker is HACR rated, meaning it is approved for use in heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration applications.
Can I swap the trip unit on the NNX3B800 for a different rating?
No, the NNX3B800 comes with a non-interchangeable thermal-magnetic trip unit. While the magnetic (instantaneous) trip is adjustable, the thermal (long-time) setting is fixed at 800 amps and the unit itself cannot be swapped.
