Built for commercial and residential distribution, the Eaton CC3225 is a 225A, three-pole molded case circuit breaker. It provides reliable tenant main protection for multi-family and commercial buildings. The bolt-on unit mounts into Type ECC unit enclosures and 1MP, 1MM, or 3MM meter stacks. It accepts 2/0 AWG to 300 kcmil copper or aluminum wiring. With a 10kAIC rating at 240VAC, this thermal-magnetic breaker ensures consistent defense against overloads and short circuits.
What types of enclosures and meter stacks is the Eaton CC3225 compatible with?
This main circuit breaker is specifically designed for installation in Eaton and Cutler-Hammer 1MP, 1MM, and 3MM meter stacks, as well as Type ECC unit enclosures.
Where is the CC3225 typically installed in an electrical distribution system?
It is most commonly used as a tenant feeder breaker in group metering stacks for multi-family residential buildings, or as a standalone main disconnect inside a Type ECC unit enclosure.
What is the difference between the Eaton CC3225 and the CCH3225 breakers?
The primary difference is the short-circuit interrupting capacity. The CC3225 provides standard 10 kAIC protection, while the CCH3225 is the higher-rated version for systems requiring greater fault current protection. Both models share the same physical frame and fit the same compatible enclosures.
Will this Eaton breaker replace an older Cutler-Hammer or Westinghouse CC3225?
Yes. Eaton acquired both the Cutler-Hammer and Westinghouse distribution equipment lines. The current Eaton CC3225 is an exact, direct drop-in replacement for legacy Cutler-Hammer and Westinghouse Type CC breakers bearing the same catalog number.
What does the LI trip function mean on this breaker?
The LI code indicates that the breaker provides Long-Time (thermal) and Instantaneous (magnetic) overcurrent protection. On this specific model, both the thermal and magnetic trip elements are fixed and cannot be adjusted in the field.
How does this breaker connect to the panel bus?
The CC3225 utilizes a bolt-on mounting configuration to ensure a secure, reliable connection to the busbar within compatible meter stacks and enclosures.
