It carries a TM240 thermal-magnetic overcurrent release — the '240' indicates the fixed thermal trip threshold at 25 A, with magnetic short-circuit pickup calibrated to 240 A (approximately 10x In). This is the standard release for general-purpose feeder and branch-circuit protection where adjustable trip isn't required. The interrupting ratings climb to 75.6 kA at 240 V and hold at 52.5 kA at 415 V, then taper to 11.9 kA at 690 V — strong numbers for a 25 A frame, giving good selectivity headroom in most LV distribution schemes.
Thermal derating and application context
At 70 mm deep, 101.6 mm wide, and 130 mm tall, this breaker fits standard Siemens 3VA panel footprints. Power loss is 8.5 W maximum at rated current, which is modest for a 4-pole 25 A frame.
