Overview

The nVent HB32028 is a 3-pole busbar adapter rated for 160A (144A continuous) designed for direct top connection to Siemens 3VA10, 3VA11, and 3VT160 circuit breakers. This adapter enables efficient power distribution in low-voltage switchgear systems by providing a standardized interface between the busbar system and Siemens-compatible breakers. The unit measures 76mm in width and is optimized for vertical mounting in panel configurations where space efficiency and reliable current transfer are critical. Engineered for compatibility with Siemens breaker designs, the HB32028 eliminates the need for custom fabrication while maintaining consistent electrical performance across industrial and commercial electrical distribution systems. The adapter's 3-pole configuration supports balanced three-phase power distribution, making it suitable for applications requiring high-current switching in motor control centers, distribution boards, and power management systems. With a compact footprint and direct top connection design, the HB32028 simplifies installation in new installations or retrofit projects where Siemens 3VA and 3VT series breakers are specified.
