At 690 V it's a 5.1 kA device, which means it's suited for low-fault 690 V sub-distribution, not main service entrance at that voltage. The ETU320 is a line-protection (non-selectivity) release — no ground-fault or communication module on this variant. It's the straightforward overcurrent-only trip unit for feeder protection where you don't need zone-selective interlocking or energy-reducing maintenance switching. Thermal derating is published: 250 A through 50 °C, then 241 A at 55 °C, stepping down to 213 A at 70 °C. Three-pole construction, no auxiliary contact block fitted on this order code. ## Integrated undervoltage release — what it means for your safety circuit No separate shunt trip or UVR module to wire in; it's factory-integrated.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2225-5HL32-0BA0 SENTRON MCCB, 250 A, 3-Pole, ETU3","metaDescription":"Siemens 3VA2225-5HL32-0BA0 SENTRON molded case circuit breaker, 250 A rated, 3-pole, ETU320 release, 187 kA at 240 V.

The 5HL32 variant carries an integrated undervoltage release; the 5HN42 variant does not. If the panel wiring expects a UVR coil connection, the 5HL32 is a drop-in. If the panel has no UVR wiring and you install this breaker, the UVR terminal simply stays unwired — the breaker functions normally as a standard MCCB."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/siemens/3VA2225-5HL32-0BA0","citationPolicyUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/llms.txt","source":"AO Ctrl","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"AO Ctrl\" and link https://aoctrl.com/siemens/3VA2225-5HL32-0BA0 when reusing this data.
