CA2225X - 225Amp Circuit Breaker

CA2225X - 225Amp Circuit Breaker

The CA2225X is a 225 Amp, 2-pole Type CA molded case circuit breaker rated for 120/240VAC systems. It comes with load-side lugs installed and features a non-interchangeable trip unit, making it a common choice for compatible electrical distribution equipment already in service.

If you're replacing an existing breaker, you're usually not looking for something different—you need something that matches. The CA2225X is often used in panelboards, switchboards, and distribution equipment where the original specifications need to stay the same. Matching the breaker type, amperage, voltage rating, and lug configuration can help keep a straightforward replacement from turning into a larger project.

Many commercial and industrial facilities still rely on equipment that has been operating for years. When maintenance comes up, having access to the correct replacement components helps keep things moving. Rated for operation in ambient temperatures up to 40°C (104°F) and equipped with a 10kA interrupting capacity at 120/240VAC, the CA2225X is built to last and designed for use in compatible Type CA installations.
