Cutler-Hammer EDH3225 225A 3-Pole Molded Case Circuit Breaker

The Cutler-Hammer EDH3225 is a high-performance molded case circuit breaker designed for industrial and commercial electrical systems requiring robust overcurrent protection. Part of the Series C family, this 3-pole breaker offers a continuous current rating of 225 amps and an interrupting capacity of 100 kAIC at 240 VAC, making it suitable for applications with high fault currents such as motor control centers, panelboards, and switchboards. It supports both AC (240V) and DC (125V) operations, providing versatility for single-phase, two-phase, or three-phase setups. Key features include thermal-magnetic trip units for reliable protection against overloads and short circuits, a compact design for easy installation in space-constrained environments, and durable construction for long-term reliability. Advantages over similar products include higher interrupting ratings compared to standard ED models, reducing the risk of equipment damage during faults. However, as a used unit that has been cleaned and tested, it may show minor cosmetic wear but performs to specifications. Ideal for heavy-duty industrial use, it ensures safety and minimizes downtime, though it requires proper maintenance to sustain performance. Drawbacks include potential obsolescence in newer systems favoring digital breakers, and it's not suitable for high-voltage applications beyond 240V.
