HQ2225BH - 225Amp Circuit Breaker

HQ2225BH - 225Amp Circuit Breaker

Need an HQ2225BH circuit breaker for an existing installation? This 225-amp, 2-pole HQPPH breaker uses a plug-in connection and thermal magnetic trip. It is rated 100k AIC at 240VAC and requires a minimum of four panel spaces. Just as important, its physical footprint is clearly defined at 4.00" W x 4.50"L x 2.56"D. Those details matter when you're trying to match a breaker already installed in legacy electrical equipment. A part number is a good starting point, but it shouldn't be the only thing you check.

Key Features and Benefits

• 225A rating: Matches equipment specifically designed for a 225-amp breaker of this type.
• Two-pole configuration: An essential detail when comparing the HQ2225BH with an existing breaker.
• Thermal magnetic trip: Uses the specified thermal magnetic tripping method.
• Plug-in connection: Designed for compatible equipment that accepts this installation style.
• HQPPH type: Helps identify the correct breaker family when checking equipment documentation.
• Four-space requirement: The breaker requires a minimum of four panel spaces, so available space should be checked before installation.

Where It Works Best

The HQ2225BH 225A circuit breaker is intended for use with compatible existing and legacy electrical equipment where its specific combination of electrical and physical specifications is required. It's especially important to match the HQPPH type, 225A rating, two-pole configuration, plug-in connection, thermal magnetic trip, and 100k AIC rating at 240VAC. The installation must also provide at least four panel spaces and accommodate the breaker's stated dimensions.
