LAL36225 - 225 Amp Circuit Breaker

LAL36225 - 225 Amp Circuit Breaker

The LAL36225 is a 225-amp, 3-pole Type LA molded-case circuit breaker for electrical equipment that requires this LA configuration. It uses a thermal-magnetic trip, providing thermal response to overload conditions and magnetic response to short circuits. If you're replacing a breaker in equipment that's already in service, take a minute to compare more than the catalog number. When properly selected, installed, and operated within its specified application and ratings, this breaker is built to last.

Key Features and Benefits

• 225A, 3-Pole Configuration: A straightforward match for equipment requiring a 225-amp, three-pole LA breaker.
• Thermal-Magnetic Protection: Thermal and magnetic sensing elements respond to overload and short-circuit conditions.
• Unit-Mount Design: Intended for equipment that uses the corresponding unit-mount arrangement.
• Line and Load Lugs: Includes lug connections on both sides of the breaker.
• Push-to-Trip Feature: Allows manual tripping without exposure to live parts.

Where It Works Best

The LAL36225 makes the most sense when you're working with existing or legacy equipment that calls for a 225A, 3-pole Type LA thermal-magnetic circuit breaker with unit mounting and line/load lug connections.

For replacement work, put the old breaker's specifications next to this one and work through them. Start with 225 amps and three poles, then confirm the 600VAC or 250VDC application, required interrupting rating, unit-mount configuration, and lug connections. Look at the physical space as well—the LAL36225 measures 11" H x 6" W x 5.84" D.
