Product FAQs
8 answers
Can I use the 3VA5110-5ED21-0AA0 to replace an older ED42B100 breaker?
Yes, the 3VA5110-5ED21-0AA0 serves as a modern drop-in upgrade for legacy ED42B100 breakers. Keep in mind that a new mounting kit may be required depending on your specific panelboard.
What mounting hardware is needed to install this breaker in a Siemens panelboard?
Installing this breaker into Siemens P1, P2, P3, P4, or P5 panelboards requires a separate mounting strap kit specific to the panel type. It does not mount directly to the bus without this hardware.
What type of protection does the TM210 trip unit offer?
The TM210 provides thermal-magnetic Long-Time and Instantaneous (LI) protection. Both the thermal overload and magnetic short-circuit trip thresholds are fixed and cannot be adjusted in the field.
Is this circuit breaker suitable for DC voltage systems?
Yes, in addition to its standard AC ratings, this breaker is rated for up to 250VDC with a 50kA interrupting capacity. This makes it suitable for direct current applications.
What frame size does the 3VA5110-5ED21-0AA0 belong to?
This breaker is part of the Siemens 125A 3VA51 frame size. Knowing the specific frame size is essential when selecting compatible accessories like handle operators, lug kits, or DIN rail adapters.
Can this breaker be used in motor control centers?
Yes, the 3VA5110-5ED21-0AA0 is compatible with Siemens motor control centers and switchboards, provided the correct mounting hardware or adapter is used for the specific enclosure.
Can the 3VA5110-5ED21-0AA0 be reverse fed?
Yes, this breaker is suitable for reverse feed applications. This allows power to be supplied to either the line or load terminals without compromising its protective functions.
Is this circuit breaker HACR rated?
Yes, it carries an HACR rating, meaning it is certified for use in protecting heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment circuits.
