JJL36225 - 225 Amp Circuit Breaker

JJL36225 - 225 Amp Circuit Breaker

The JJL36225 gives you several clear checkpoints when you're matching a 225A breaker to an existing installation. It is a three-pole PowerPacT J circuit breaker with thermal-magnetic overload and short-circuit protection, along with lugs on both the line and load sides. The trip characteristics are specified at a 2250A magnetic tripping current and 1125A magnetic hold current. The JJL36225 is built to last, with well-defined electrical, connection, and dimensional specifications for form, fit, and functional replacement in compatible existing or legacy distribution equipment.

Key Features and Benefits

• 225A, three-pole configuration provides the core rating needed to confirm compatibility with existing PowerPacT J equipment.
• Thermal-magnetic trip technology provides overload and short-circuit protection.
• Lugs on both ends establish a clearly defined line- and load-side connection arrangement.
• AL250JD terminals accept 3/0 AWG through 350 kcmil aluminum or copper conductors.
• Carries an 80% continuous current rating.
• HACR rated for applications where that designation is required.
• An integral push-to-trip button provides a manual means of tripping the breaker.

Where It Works Best

The JJL36225 is suited to compatible existing and legacy distribution equipment that calls for a 225A, three-pole PowerPacT J circuit breaker with thermal-magnetic protection and lug connections on both sides. The AL250JD terminal designation, conductor range, trip characteristics, and physical dimensions provide useful reference points when checking a replacement.
