Which Siemens panelboards are compatible with the 3VA5215-5ED31-0AA0?
This breaker integrates into Siemens 3VA-series panelboards, including the P3, P4, and P5 models. It is also compatible with standard Siemens switchboards and motor control centers.
What legacy Siemens breaker does this 3VA5 model replace?
The 3VA5215-5ED31-0AA0 serves as the modern replacement for the legacy Siemens FD63B150 circuit breaker, providing equivalent 150A protection utilizing the updated 3VA52 250-amp frame.
Are the thermal or magnetic trip functions adjustable on this unit?
No. It is equipped with a TM210 trip unit, meaning both the thermal (overload) and magnetic (short-circuit) protection settings are fixed and cannot be field-adjusted.
Does the base catalog number include terminal lugs?
The base catalog number ending in -0AA0 is manufactured by Siemens without factory-installed lugs. A separate lug kit is required for standard cable termination if your enclosure does not provide integral mounting connections.
Is this breaker suitable for reverse feed installations?
Yes, the 3VA5215-5ED31-0AA0 is HACR rated and approved for reverse feed applications, allowing you to land incoming line power on either the top or bottom terminals safely.
What safety and performance standards apply to this 3VA5 breaker?
This molded case circuit breaker is fully compliant with UL 489, CSA, and IEC 60947-2 standards for robust protection in commercial and industrial distribution networks.
