Product FAQs
8 answersHow is this breaker installed into Siemens P-series panelboards?
While the 3VA6225-5HL31-0AA0 is compatible with Siemens P2, P3, P4, and P5 panelboards, it requires a separately sourced connector kit or mounting strap for panelboard installation. These kits provide the necessary bus connections to properly mount the breaker within the enclosure.
What does the "5HL31" segment of the catalog number specify?
It identifies the trip unit type. The "HL" designates the Siemens ETU320 electronic trip unit equipped with LI (Long-Time and Instantaneous) protection functions. Adjustments are made via physical rotary dials on the front face of the device.
What is the adjustable trip range for this 250A 3VA62 frame breaker?
The ETU320 LI trip unit allows you to dial in the Long-Time continuous current (Ir) setting from 100A to 250A. The Instantaneous short-circuit pickup (Ii) is adjustable from 375A to 2500A.
Can the 3VA6225-5HL31-0AA0 be reverse fed?
Yes. All Siemens Sentron 3VA62 frame electronic trip circuit breakers are UL listed for reverse feed applications.
What does the Class M breaking capacity designation mean?
Siemens uses Class M to indicate a Medium Low tier of interrupting capacity within the 3VA6 family. For this 250A frame, Class M certifies the breaker to safely clear faults up to 35kA at 480VAC and 100kA at 240VAC.
Does the ETU320 trip unit provide thermal memory protection?
Yes, the ETU320 features a permanently active thermal memory that cannot be deactivated. This safety mechanism tracks heating during overloads to protect downstream conductors from damage caused by repeated or consecutive faults.
What internal accessories can be installed in the 3VA6225-5HL31-0AA0?
The modular 3VA6 platform is designed to accept a variety of field-installable internal accessories, including shunt trips, undervoltage releases, auxiliary switches, and trip alarm switches.
Can the ETU320 trip unit communicate with a facility metering network?
No. The ETU320 is designed for standalone line protection. If your application requires power metering or active data communication, you must specify a breaker equipped with an advanced ETU5-series or ETU8-series trip unit.
