The trip indicator is mechanical, so you can see a trip event even with the panel door closed. ## Panel fit — dimensions and mounting The 140 mm width is the 4-pole footprint; a 3-pole version would be narrower, so if you're swapping into a panel cut out for a 3-pole MCCB, you'll need to verify the mounting plate accommodates the extra width.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2225-5HL42-0CL0 SENTRON MCCB, 250 A, 4-Pole, 187","metaDescription":"Siemens 3VA2225-5HL42-0CL0 SENTRON molded case circuit breaker, 250 A continuous, 4-pole, 187 kA at 240 V.
