3VA5290-5EC31-0AA0 - MFAS 90 Amp Circuit Breaker Description
3VA5290-5EC31-0AA0 - MFAS 90 Amp Circuit Breaker
The Siemens 3VA5290-5EC31-0AA0 is one of those breakers you install and don’t have to think about again—and that’s exactly the point. It’s a 90-amp, 3-pole unit built on Siemens’ 3VA5 platform, designed for everyday use in commercial and industrial systems where failure isn’t an option. With a 35kA interrupting rating at 480V, it’s ready for higher fault conditions without hesitation. Inside, you’ve got a thermal-magnetic trip unit, so it handles overloads and short circuits the way it should—nothing fancy, just dependable protection that reacts when it needs to. The settings are fixed, which most guys actually prefer. No adjustments, no second-guessing—install it, wire it, move on. Physically, it’s compact enough to fit comfortably in most panel setups, but still built with the kind of weight and feel you expect from Siemens. This is the kind of breaker contractors, maintenance teams, and panel builders keep coming back to because it just does its job.
