The interrupting curve drops sharply at 690 V to 4.5 kA — this breaker is not your go-to for 690 V high-fault applications; at that voltage, the 121 kA at 500 V is the realistic ceiling for heavy-duty service.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2225-6KP32-0HA0 SENTRON MCCB, 250 A, 242 kA at 24","metaDescription":"Siemens 3VA2225-6KP32-0HA0 SENTRON molded case circuit breaker, 250 A continuous, 242 kA interrupting at 240 V.
