Schneider Electric Square D Q232225 Circuit Breaker

Schneider Electric's Square D Q232225 is a three-pole molded-case circuit breaker rated for 225 A at 240 V AC, part of the PowerPact Q family (Type Q2) designed for use in industrial and commercial panels. It provides thermal-magnetic protection with clearly defined long-time and instantaneous trip functions to guard feeder circuits against overloads and short circuits in demanding electrical environments. This unit uses I-Line style plug-in mounting for straightforward installation in compatible Square D enclosures and enables reliable interchange with other Q2-series breakers. With a 22 kA short-circuit interrupting rating at 240 VAC, it offers robust protection for circuits where high fault currents may be encountered, and its 3-pole design ensures balanced protection across all three phases. Specifically engineered to withstand frequent switching and thermal stress in industrial environments, the Q232225 is designed for reliable performance in enclosures that accept PowerPact Q breakers. It is compatible with heavy-duty feeder applications and supports standard protective schemes, including thermal overload and magnetic short-circuit protection, making it suitable for commercial electrical rooms, manufacturing lines, and service panels where high-current protection is required.
