Product details

MCCB with ETU850 for line protection

The Siemens SENTRON 3VA2225-6KP32-0AA0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) designed for line protection, carrying a continuous rated current of 250 A and an insulation voltage of 800 V.

This MCCB delivers 242 kA at 240 V, 187 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 121 kA at 500 V, and 4.5 kA at 690 V. The steep drop at 690 V means you need to verify the available fault current at that voltage level — the 4.5 kA rating is adequate for most 690 V distribution but not for high-fault locations. At 415 V and below, the 187–242 kA range provides substantial headroom for high-capacity transformer secondaries or parallel-fed switchgear.

Above that, it derates linearly: 238 A at 55 °C, 225 A at 60 °C, 213 A at 65 °C, and 200 A at 70 °C. The operating temperature range is -25 °C to 70 °C, with storage from -40 °C to 80 °C.

The breaker measures 105 mm wide, 181 mm high, and 86 mm deep. The IP40 front protection is suitable for enclosed distribution panels.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between 3VA2225-6KP32-0AA0 and 3VA2116-5JP32-0AE0?

The 3VA2116-5JP32-0AE0 is a lower-rated variant in the same SENTRON 3VA family — it carries a lower continuous current and a different trip unit. The 3VA2225-6KP32-0AA0 is the 250 A version with the ETU850 electronic trip. They share the same 3-pole form factor and mounting footprint, so a panel designed for the 3VA2116 can accept the 3VA2225 without rewiring, provided the bus bars and cable terminations are rated for the higher current.
