Product details

It's a line-protection breaker — meaning it's set up for cable and busbar protection, not motor overload duty. The interrupting ratings are the headline: 242 kA at 240 V, 187 kA at 415 V, and 4.5 kA at 690 V. The 690 V rating drops to 4.5 kA, which is still useful for 690 V drives or transformer secondaries but not for high-fault locations on that voltage class. It also carries a communication function, so it can talk to a higher-level control system for trip data and remote monitoring — useful when you're coordinating a whole switchboard and want event logs without walking the floor.

Full 250 A rating holds through 50 °C ambient. Above that it steps down: 240.625 A at 55 °C, 231.25 A at 60 °C, 221.875 A at 65 °C, and 212.5 A at 70 °C. The maximum power loss is 55 W, which is modest for a 250 A frame but still needs ventilation in a sealed box.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I buy 3VA2225-6JP32-0BG0 and what's the lead time?

Sourced and quoted to order against an RFQ through independent distribution. Availability and current pricing are confirmed at quote time — no stock count or lead-time number is published here, but we can get you a firm position within a business day.

What are the key interrupting ratings for 3VA2225-6JP32-0BG0?

242 kA at 240 V, 187 kA at 415 V, and 4.5 kA at 690 V. The 415 V figure is the one that governs most 400 V distribution panels.

What trip unit does this MCCB use?

The ETU550 — a microprocessor-based electronic trip unit with adjustable long-time, short-time, instantaneous, and ground-fault protection, plus communication capability for remote monitoring.

What are the physical dimensions of 3VA2225-6JP32-0BG0?

105 mm wide, 181 mm tall, 107 mm deep — standard 3-pole MCCB footprint.

Does this breaker include an undervoltage release?

Yes, it ships with an undervoltage release (UVR) as standard, plus one auxiliary switch and one trip-alarm switch.
