Product details

Breaking Capacity and Thermal Derating

Breaking capacity drops from 220 kA at 240 V to 154 kA at 415 V, 75.6 kA at 440 V, 30 kA at 500 V, and 17 kA at 690 V — a steep curve that matters when specifying for 480 V or 600 V systems. The 250 A rating holds flat from 40 °C to 50 °C, then derates to 243 A at 55 °C and 230 A at 65 °C. For a panel running at 60 °C ambient, the usable current is 237 A, not the full 250 A.

Panel Integration and Dimensions

The 59.5 W maximum power loss means the breaker dissipates heat into the enclosure; factor that into thermal calculations for sealed cabinets.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get current pricing and availability for 3VA1225-6EF42-0CC0?

Submit an RFQ through this listing. The part is sourced to order through independent distribution; pricing and stock levels are confirmed at quote time based on your quantity and delivery requirements.

What is the breaking capacity of 3VA1225-6EF42-0CC0 at 480 V?

At 440 V it is rated 75.6 kA; at 500 V it drops to 30 kA. For a 480 V system, the value falls between those two points — conservatively, use the 440 V figure (75.6 kA) for system coordination.

Does 3VA1225-6EF42-0CC0 include an undervoltage release?

Yes, it is equipped with an undervoltage release (UVR) as the auxiliary release type, plus two auxiliary switches HQ for status feedback.
