3VA5222-6ED31-0AA0 - HFAS 225 Amp Circuit Breaker Description
3VA5222-6ED31-0AA0 - HFAS 225 Amp Circuit Breaker
If you’re replacing a 225A 3-pole breaker or setting up a new panel, the Siemens 3VA5222-6ED31-0AA0 is one of those parts that just makes sense. It’s built for standard three-phase systems and handles both overloads and short circuits without needing any extra setup or adjustments. This breaker uses a thermal magnetic trip unit, so it works the way most electricians expect. It’ll carry your load at 225 amps, trip on overload when it needs to, and react instantly if there’s a short circuit. The instantaneous trip is set at 10 times the rated current, which is typical for protecting equipment without nuisance tripping. With a 35kA interrupting rating at 480V, it’s suitable for a wide range of commercial and light industrial applications. Whether it’s going into a distribution panel, feeding HVAC equipment, or replacing an existing Siemens unit, it’s a straightforward fit. It’s also part of the 3VA5 series, so the footprint is compact and modern—helpful if you’re working in a tight panel or upgrading older gear.
