The Siemens SENTRON 3VA2225-6KP32-0BH0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for 250 A continuous current at 40 °C, with a maximum breaking capacity of 242 kA at 240 V AC. The 250 A continuous rating holds flat from 40 °C through 50 °C, then derates linearly to 200 A at 70 °C. For a 250 A feeder in a 60 °C enclosure, you're effectively working with a 225 A device.
Breaking capacity across voltages
Breaking capacity drops with system voltage: 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. For typical 480 V North American panels, 121 kA is ample for most transformer ratings up to 2500 kVA.
The communication function suggests it's ready for integration into a higher-level monitoring system, though the protocol isn't specified in the base listing. A trip indicator gives local visual status.
The 50.5 W maximum power loss matters for thermal management in sealed enclosures — at full load, that's heat that needs to be vented or dissipated.
