CAH2225 - 225Amp Circuit Breaker

CAH2225 - 225Amp Circuit Breaker

Finding the right replacement breaker is often about more than matching the amp rating. In many cases, the breaker needs to fit the existing equipment, meet the original electrical specifications, and work within the system that's already in place. The CAH2225 225 Amp 2-Pole Molded Case Circuit Breaker is commonly used in commercial and industrial electrical distribution systems where maintaining that compatibility is important.

Rated at 225 amps with a 22kA interrupting capacity at 120/240VAC, the CAH2225 is built for your applications that require a CAH-frame molded case circuit breaker. It features a non-interchangeable trip unit and comes equipped with both line-side and load-side lugs, helping you simplify installation in compatible equipment. Its compact size makes it a practical choice for your existing panel and distribution system layouts where space and proper fitment matter. Rated for operation in 40°C environments, this breaker is built to last and is frequently used during maintenance projects, equipment repairs, and replacement work where preserving the original system design is the goal.
