MP225 - 25 Amp Circuit Breaker

MP225 - 25 Amp Circuit Breaker

Finding the right breaker for an existing electrical system comes down to matching the details—not chasing unnecessary changes. The Siemens MP225 circuit breaker is a 25-amp, 2-pole, 120/240V AC thermal-magnetic breaker with a 10 kA interrupting rating and MP-T design. It is intended for your compatible residential electrical distribution equipment that specifically calls for this breaker configuration, including applicable load center main and feeder applications within the QP/MP product family.

Key Features and Benefits

• 25A current rating: Designed for compatible circuits that specify a 25-amp breaker.
• 2-pole configuration: Provides the two-pole arrangement required by compatible 120/240V AC electrical systems.
• 120/240V AC rating: Matches the voltage configuration specified for the MP225.
• Thermal-magnetic circuit protection: Uses thermal and magnetic trip characteristics to respond to applicable overcurrent conditions.
• MP-T design: An important identifier when matching the breaker to compatible existing equipment.
• 50/60 Hz compatibility: Manufacturer classification data identifies the breaker as rated for 50/60 Hz supply frequency.
• Replacement-focused selection: Well suited to maintenance situations where preserving the specified breaker type, ratings, and compatibility is the priority.
