KH36250 - 250 Amp Circuit Breaker

KH36250 - 250 Amp Circuit Breaker

When a panelboard calls for a KH36250, there's a useful list of details you can check before installation. This is a 250-amp, 3-pole Type KH molded case circuit breaker for compatible I-Line panelboards. It has a thermal-magnetic configuration and is specified for 60Hz and 40°C. Rather than relying on the 250A rating alone, check the breaker type, poles, dimensions, frequency, temperature rating, and AIC rating for the system voltage. If those details agree with the application, the KH36250 may provide the form, fit, and function needed to keep compatible equipment in service.

Key Features and Benefits

• 250A, 3-pole configuration for applications requiring these specific electrical characteristics.
• Type KH molded case circuit breaker designed for use with compatible I-Line panelboards.
• The thermal-magnetic configuration matches equipment that requires this breaker arrangement.
• 60Hz and 40°C specifications provide additional reference points when checking compatibility.
• Well suited to existing and legacy I-Line equipment when the electrical and physical specifications match the application.

Material Compliance and Certifications

The supplied information for the KH36250 doesn't identify any specific third-party certifications or material compliance standards. For that reason, certifications or standards such as UL, RoHS, or REACH shouldn't be assumed.

Where It Works Best

The KH36250 is a good fit to evaluate when you're servicing a compatible I-Line panelboard that specifically requires a Type KH breaker with these characteristics. Legacy installations are a good example, since keeping the existing equipment in service often depends on locating the correct physical and electrical configuration.

Start with the KH36250 part number and 250A, 3-pole configuration, but don't stop there. Compare the breaker dimensions, Type KH designation, 60Hz frequency, 40°C specification, and the interrupting rating required at the system voltage. The 4.50 "W x 10.50 "L x 4.38 "D footprint is particularly useful when checking physical fit.
