The Siemens SENTRON 3VA2325-6HL32-0JC0 is a 3-pole molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) rated for 250 A continuous current across the full ambient range from 40 °C to 70 °C — no derating needed up to that ceiling. Breaking capacity runs 242 kA at 240 V, 187 kA at 415 V and 440 V, 121 kA at 500 V, and 7.5 kA at 690 V, so it handles high-fault utility feeds or transformer secondaries without cascading upstream.
The basic switch supplied is 3VA2325-6HL32-0AA0.
