3VA5280-5EC31-0AA0 - MFAS 80 Amp Circuit Breaker Description
3VA5280-5EC31-0AA0 - MFAS 80 Amp Circuit Breaker
If you’ve worked with Siemens breakers before, you already know what this is about. The 3VA5280-5EC31-0AA0 is an 80 amp, 3-pole unit from the 3VA5 line. Nothing fancy here—and that’s the point. It’s built to handle the load, clear a fault when it needs to, and stay out of your way the rest of the time. It’s rated 35kA at 480V, so it holds up in systems where fault current is a real concern. The trip unit is thermal magnetic, factory set—overload at 80 amps, instantaneous at 10x. You don’t have to dial anything in or second-guess settings. It’s ready to go. Size-wise, it’s compact enough to work into most panels without a fight. Install is straightforward. Once it’s in, you’re not thinking about it again—which is exactly how it should be.
