Product details

The 250 A rating holds at ambient temperatures up to 50 °C without derating — at 55 °C it's 238 A, at 60 °C it's 225 A, at 65 °C it's 213 A, and at 70 °C it's 200 A. Breaking capacity is 187 kA at 240 V, 121 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 79 kA at 500 V, and 5.1 kA at 690 V. That 121 kA at 415 V gives serious fault-current headroom for most industrial distribution boards — you're not bumping up against the SCCR limit on a typical 415 V supply.

Trip unit, auxiliaries, and communication

The integrated auxiliary trip is order code 3VA9608-0BB25. The basic switch supplied is 3VA2225-5JP32-0AA0. The mechanical endurance is 20,000 operations (latching).

The depth of 86 mm means it clears most standard enclosure depths, but check gland-plate clearance if you're mounting it near the back wall. No trip indicator, no voltage trigger, no phase failure detection, and no ground fault monitoring on this variant.

Frequently asked questions

What is 3VA2225-5JP32-0DC0's rated continuous current?

Rated continuous current Iu is 250 A, with thermal derating above 50 °C ambient — 238 A at 55 °C, 225 A at 60 °C, 213 A at 65 °C, 200 A at 70 °C.

What breaking capacity does this MCCB have at 415 V?

Breaking capacity is 121 kA at 415 V (and at 440 V), 187 kA at 240 V, 79 kA at 500 V, and 5.1 kA at 690 V.

What trip unit does 3VA2225-5JP32-0DC0 use?

It uses the ETU550 electronic trip unit with communication function, an undervoltage release (UVR), and 2 HQ auxiliary switches.
