Maximum power loss is 57 W. These limits govern the breaker's placement in unconditioned enclosures or outdoor-rated panels. The 4-pole width occupies roughly 5.5 inches of rail space — plan the enclosure layout accordingly.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA1225-6EF42-0JA0 SENTRON MCCB, 250A, 4-Pole, 220kA","metaDescription":"Siemens 3VA1225-6EF42-0JA0 SENTRON molded case circuit breaker, 250A at 40°C, 4-pole, 220kA interrupting at 240V.
