Part of the legacy K-Frame series, the Square D KIL36225 is a 3-pole, 225A current-limiting molded case circuit breaker. It delivers reliable thermal-magnetic protection for demanding commercial and industrial applications. This unit-mount breaker installs into compatible Square D enclosures, switchboards, and motor control centers. It is superseded by the JRL36225 model. Rated for an impressive 200kAIC at 480VAC, it effectively limits let-through energy to protect downstream equipment.
What does the current limiting feature on the KIL36225 do?
As a current limiting breaker, it clears electrical faults extremely fast. This reduces the let-through energy and peak current during a short circuit, providing enhanced protection for downstream equipment and allowing for a high 200kA interrupting rating at 480VAC.
How is the magnetic trip adjusted on this breaker?
The KIL36225 features an adjustable magnetic trip element in each pole. The trip point can be adjusted between low and high settings using the dial located on the front of the breaker.
Does this breaker mount onto an I-Line bus?
No, the KIL36225 is a unit mount, feed-thru circuit breaker. It requires standard lug connections and is not designed for plug-on I-Line panelboard installations.
Is the KIL36225 still in active production?
The KIL36225 is part of the legacy K-Frame series. For new installations or direct upgrades, it has been superseded by the PowerPact J-Frame series, specifically the JRL36225 model.
How do the Long-Time and Instantaneous trip functions protect the circuit?
The fixed thermal element provides Long-Time protection against sustained overloads, while the adjustable magnetic element delivers Instantaneous tripping to immediately clear short circuits.
