Q232225 - 225 Amp Circuit Breaker

Q232225 - 225 Amp Circuit Breaker

When an existing electrical system calls for a Q232225 circuit breaker, it is important to match the original specifications. The Q232225 is a 225-amp, 3-pole Q2 molded-case circuit breaker with a Q-Frame design and I-Line plug-on connection. It uses a thermal-magnetic trip mechanism to provide overload and short-circuit protection and is rated at 10 kA at 240 VAC. At 7.88 inches high, 4.5 inches wide, and 4.31 inches deep, its dimensions are also an important consideration when checking fit in existing equipment. This breaker is a practical choice for maintenance and replacement work where the system specifically requires the Q232225 configuration. In other words, it's about getting the right breaker for the equipment already in place, not simply finding another 225A breaker. Check the part number, frame, mounting style, number of poles, and electrical ratings before installation. When correctly matched and maintained, these breakers are built to last and provide dependable circuit protection within their specified application.

Key Features and Benefits

• 225A rating for compatible equipment requiring a 225-amp breaker.
• Three-pole design for applicable three-phase electrical systems.
• Q2 Q-Frame configuration for equipment designed around this specific breaker style.
• I-Line plug-on mounting helps provide the correct physical connection in compatible equipment.
• Thermal-magnetic trip mechanism responds to overload and short-circuit conditions.

Material Compliance and Certifications

• Specific certification, listing, and material-compliance information is not included in the available product specifications. If a job or facility requires particular approvals or compliance documentation, confirm the markings and documentation on the individual breaker before installation. Installation should follow the breaker's nameplate ratings, equipment requirements, and applicable electrical codes.

Where It Works Best

• The Q232225 is best suited to repair and maintenance work on existing electrical distribution equipment designed for a Q2 Q-Frame, I-Line plug-on breaker. It is particularly relevant when the original application requires a 225A, three-pole thermal-magnetic breaker with a 10k AIC rating at 240VAC.
