It carries an interrupting capacity of 187 kA at 240 V and 121 kA at 415 V, so it clears high-fault currents on a 400 V distribution panel without cascading upstream — the SCCR headroom is what allows a single MCCB to protect a transformer-fed bus. The ETU320 overcurrent release is a thermal-magnetic trip unit; it handles overloads (thermal curve) and short-circuits (magnetic instantaneous) without external power. The 25 A continuous rating holds flat from 40 °C through 70 °C — no derating needed in a warm enclosure, which is uncommon for a compact MCCB. Insulation voltage is rated 800 V, so the breaker can sit on a 690 V line (where interrupting capacity drops to 3.7 kA — still adequate for most motor branch circuits at that voltage). Dimensions are 140 mm wide, 181 mm high, 86 mm deep — a standard SENTRON 3VA2 frame footprint.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2125-5HL42-0AA0 SENTRON MCCB, 25 A, 4-Pole, 187 k","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON molded case circuit breaker 3VA2125-5HL42-0AA0, 25 A continuous, 4-pole, ETU320 release, 187 kA at 240 V.
