The interrupting ratings are substantial: 330 kA at 240 V, 242 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 187 kA at 500 V, and 6.3 kA at 690 V — so it handles high-fault-current points like service entrances or transformer secondaries where the available fault current is high. For a panel builder or site electrical engineer: the 86 mm depth, 105 mm width, and 181 mm height fit the standard SENTRON 3VA2 mounting footprint. The 250 A rating holds flat from 40 °C up to 50 °C (full 250 A), then derates to 241 A at 55 °C, 232 A at 60 °C, 222 A at 65 °C, and 213 A at 70 °C. If your ambient at the breaker is above 50 °C, factor that derate into your load schedule. With the ETU320 release, selectivity (discrimination) with downstream breakers depends on the time-current curve settings. The electronic trip allows adjustable long-time pickup and delay, short-time pickup and delay, and instantaneous pickup. For a transformer feed or a main breaker feeding multiple subfeeds, this gives you the band to coordinate. ## Physical Integration — Panel Mounting The 3-pole design with line-side and load-side lugs accepts copper or aluminum conductors sized for 250 A. The two HQ auxiliary switches and the undervoltage release are factory-installed — no field assembly of those accessories.","metaTitle":"Siemens 3VA2225-7HL32-0BC0 SENTRON MCCB, 250 A, 3-pole, 330","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2225-7HL32-0BC0 molded case circuit breaker, 250 A rated, 3-pole, 330 kA at 240 V.
