Product FAQs
6 answers
Which older Siemens circuit breakers does the 3VA5130-5EC31-0AA0 replace?
This 3VA5 breaker is a direct replacement for the discontinued Siemens HGG3B030. Because it features a 35kA at 480V interrupting rating, it can also safely replace lower-rated ED63B030 and NGG3B030 30A breakers. It is designed to fit into the same footprint using retrofit hardware.
Are terminal lugs included with the 3VA5130-5EC31-0AA0 breaker?
No. The -0AA0 catalog suffix indicates this breaker ships without lugs. You must purchase the appropriate Siemens 3VA lug kits separately based on your specific wire size and material requirements.
What type of trip unit is installed in the 3VA5130-5EC31-0AA0?
It utilizes a TM230 thermal-magnetic trip unit. While the thermal overload protection is fixed at 30A, the magnetic short-circuit protection is adjustable, allowing for better selective coordination in your distribution system.
Can the 3VA5130-5EC31-0AA0 be reverse fed?
Yes, this breaker is suitable for reverse feed installations, making it versatile for various panelboard and switchboard configurations where back-feeding is required.
Is this 30A breaker HACR rated?
Yes, it carries an HACR rating, meaning it is certified for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment. It is also rated as a current limiting breaker.
What is the physical frame size of this breaker?
It is built on the Siemens 3VA51 frame, which is a 125A maximum frame size. The physical dimensions are approximately 5.5 inches high, 3 inches wide, and 3.7 inches deep.
