3VA5290-5EF31-0AA0 - MFAS 90 Amp Circuit Breaker Description
3VA5290-5EF31-0AA0 - MFAS 90 Amp Circuit Breaker
The Siemens 3VA5290-5EF31-0AA0 is a straightforward, no-nonsense circuit breaker built for real-world electrical systems. It’s rated at 90 amps with a 3-pole configuration, making it a practical fit for three-phase applications where you just need dependable protection without overcomplicating things. This unit uses a thermal magnetic trip, so it handles overloads and short circuits the way most contractors expect—nothing fancy, just proven protection that works. The overload is fixed at 90 amps, which means there’s no setup to worry about. Install it, wire it, and it’s ready to go. On the short-circuit side, it trips instantly at 10 times the rated current, helping limit damage when something goes wrong. With a 35kA interrupting rating at 480V, it’s capable of handling higher fault conditions found in commercial and light industrial setups. It’s part of Siemens’ 3VA5 line, which has a reputation for being consistent and easy to work with in the field.
