Eaton Specification Sheet - CH30B3225R
Eaton type CH circuit breaker limited warranty June 2024
The 225 A main breaker with copper bus delivers high current handling with low impedance, reducing voltage drop on motor starts. This translates to improved motor control and reduced energy losses in critical feeders. Enclosure and protection: a NEMA 3R metallic enclosure tolerates outdoor or damp locations, while the 10 kAIC interrupt rating guards against short-circuit events, boosting system reliability in harsh environments. Wiring and space efficiency: 30 circuits and 30 spaces, four-wire capability, and #2/0 AWG - 300 kcmil wire size support large feeders and flexible installation for expanding facilities. Installation practicality: overhead feed simplifies routing; hub closure plates speed up setup and seal integrity, cutting commissioning time. Compliance and lifecycle: UL 67 UL 50 listings with limited lifetime warranty; compatible with CH series components for scalable distribution, keeping maintenance predictable for years.
