PDG22M0225TFFJ - 225 Amp Circuit Breaker

PDG22M0225TFFJ - 225 Amp Circuit Breaker

The Eaton PDG22M0225TFFJ is a 225-amp, 2-pole molded case circuit breaker from the Power Defense line. It's a Frame 2 breaker with a fixed thermal-magnetic trip and standard line and load lugs. The breaker has a 65 kA interrupting rating at 480 VAC and a maximum voltage rating of 600 VAC. For the right application, that combination gives you a straightforward way to handle overload and short-circuit protection without an adjustable electronic trip unit. Size-wise, the breaker is approximately 6 inches high, 2.76 inches wide, and 3.5 inches deep. This model is primarily suited to commercial and industrial electrical equipment designed around its specific ratings and configuration. If you're trying to match an existing breaker, the catalog number is important. A breaker that happens to be 225A and 2-pole isn't necessarily an equivalent replacement. Check the frame, trip type, voltage, interrupting capacity, and lug arrangement as well.

Material Compliance and Certifications

• The PDG22M0225TFFJ is RoHS compliant. Published certifications and approvals for this breaker include UL 489, CSA, IEC 60947-2, and CCC.
• Those markings are useful when you're checking a breaker against project or equipment requirements, particularly where North American or international standards apply. They shouldn't be treated as a substitute for checking the electrical system itself. Voltage, available fault current, conductors, equipment requirements, and applicable electrical codes must still be considered.

Where It Works Best

• This breaker makes the most sense in commercial and industrial power distribution applications that specifically call for a 225A, 2-pole Power Defense Frame 2 breaker. Depending on the equipment, that can include distribution systems, industrial machinery, and other electrical equipment requiring fixed thermal-magnetic circuit protection.
• The 65 kAIC rating at 480 VAC is an important part of the match, especially where available fault current is a concern.
