Part of GE's Spectra RMS line, the SFHA24AT0250 is a 2-pole, 250A molded case circuit breaker designed for commercial and industrial power distribution. It installs into GE Spectra Series panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers. This unit features an electronic trip with adjustable Long-Time, Short-Time, and Instantaneous (LSI) functions for precise coordination. Rated at 65kAIC at 240V, it includes true RMS sensing and an SRPF250A250 rating plug.
Which rating plug series is compatible with the SFHA24AT0250?
This breaker frame requires an interchangeable rating plug to establish its continuous long-time current rating. It accepts GE SRPF series rating plugs. You can use the SRPF250A250 for a full 250A rating, or install a lower amperage plug like the SRPF250A150 to limit the continuous load to 150A.
How are the LSI trip functions adjusted on this breaker?
The electronic trip unit provides Long-Time, Short-Time, and Instantaneous (LSI) protection. The long-time continuous current is set by installing the required SRPF rating plug, while the short-time delay and instantaneous pickup levels are configured directly on the trip unit face to coordinate with downstream devices.
What is the difference between the SFHA24AT0250 and SFLA24AT0250 breakers?
Both are 2-pole, 250A frame Spectra RMS circuit breakers, but they differ in their short-circuit interrupting capacity. The SFHA model has an interrupting rating of 35kA at 480V, whereas the SFLA model provides a higher 65kA interrupting rating at 480V.
Is the SFHA24AT0250 suitable for reverse feed applications?
Yes, GE Spectra RMS SF250 frame circuit breakers are rated for reverse feed applications. Always confirm that your specific panelboard layout and local codes permit reverse feeding before finalizing the installation.
How does true RMS sensing benefit this circuit breaker?
The Spectra RMS trip system uses digital sampling to determine the true RMS value of electrical currents. This ensures accurate overcurrent protection and prevents nuisance tripping in environments with non-sinusoidal currents or high harmonics, such as facilities with variable frequency drives or extensive discharge lighting.
Can I install an SRPG rating plug into the SFHA24AT0250?
No. SRPG rating plugs are physically sized and calibrated for the 400A and 600A SG600 frame breakers. For the SFHA24AT0250, you must exclusively use an SRPF series rating plug designed for the SF250 breaker frame.

Obsolete Item
The re-certified breaker I ordered was delivered as promised and took care of my problem perfectly. I was under a time crunch and when the I=in-stock breaker did not pass SuperBreakers' testing, they ordered another one and shipped it out within my time-frame. Very pleased with the service and will use them again.
