Breaking capacity at 240 V is 242 kA — that is the maximum fault current it can safely interrupt at that voltage without welding contacts or rupturing the case; at 690 V the same breaker derates to 4.5 kA, so verify your system's available fault current at the point of installation. The 250 A rating holds flat from 40 °C to 50 °C ambient; above that it begins to taper — 241 A at 55 °C, 232 A at 60 °C, 222 A at 65 °C, and 213 A at 70 °C. ## Breaking capacity across voltages — selectivity planning The 3VA2225-6HN32-0HD0 delivers 242 kA at 240 V, 187 kA at both 415 V and 440 V, 121 kA at 500 V, and 4.5 kA at 690 V. These are the maximum interrupting ratings at each voltage level; they define the upper bound for fault current the breaker can clear while maintaining its integrity. When designing selective coordination, use the rating at your system voltage — not the highest number on the datasheet — because a 690 V fault sees only 4.5 kA of interrupting capability, which may be lower than the available fault current in a 690 V distribution panel.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2225-6HN32-0HD0 SENTRON MCCB, 250 A, 3-Pole, ETU3","metaDescription":"Siemens 3VA2225-6HN32-0HD0 SENTRON molded case circuit breaker, 250 A, 3-pole, ETU350 release.
