The interrupting capacity is what decides whether this breaker survives a fault: 242 kA at 240 V, 187 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 121 kA at 500 V, and 4.5 kA at 690 V. At the common 415 V industrial level, that 187 kA gives you serious headroom over a typical 50–65 kA panel SCCR — it's sized for high-fault locations like a main feeder or a transformer secondary tie. Thermal derating is published across the operating range: it holds 250 A flat from 40 °C through 50 °C, then drops to 241 A at 55 °C, 232 A at 60 °C, 222 A at 65 °C, and 213 A at 70 °C. ## Installation and panel fit That's a standard 3-pole MCCB width for the SENTRON 3VA2 frame — it'll drop into a panel that's already cut for a 3VA2 or a comparable 250 A frame breaker. It ships with a basic switch variant order code 3VA2225-6HL32-0AA0, and the auxiliary switch configuration is 1 auxiliary switch plus 1 trip alarm switch HP — that's the standard signaling package for remote status and fault indication. If you need those, you'd step to a different suffix on the 3VA2 platform. The storage low end matters if this sits in an unheated warehouse before installation.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2225-6HL32-0AG0 SENTRON MCCB, 250 A, 3-Pole","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2225-6HL32-0AG0 molded case circuit breaker, 250 A rated, 3-pole, 242 kA at 240 V interrupting capacity.
