The breaker holds its full 250 A rating from 40 °C through 50 °C ambient; above that it derates linearly to 238 A at 55 °C, 225 A at 60 °C, 213 A at 65 °C, and 200 A at 70 °C. Maximum power loss is 48 W. Dimensions are 181 mm high, 140 mm wide, and 86 mm deep — a standard MCCB footprint for 250 A class, 4-pole units. Front-face protection rating is IP40. The breaker includes communication functionality and an other measurement function, but no undervoltage release, ground-fault monitoring, or trip indicator on this variant.","metaTitle":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2225-7KP42-0AA0 MCCB, 250 A, 4-Pole","metaDescription":"Siemens SENTRON 3VA2225-7KP42-0AA0 molded case circuit breaker, 250 A continuous, 4-pole, 330 kA at 240 V.
