Eaton ED2225L - 225 A, 240 V, 2-Pole Circuit Breaker | AmpState

Powerful protection with a compact footprint, the Eaton ED2225L is a 225 A, 240 V, 2-pole molded case circuit breaker built to safeguard your panelboards and loadcenters. Designed for dependable branch circuit overcurrent and short-circuit protection, it blends reliability with space-efficient engineering for both new installs and replacements.

• Space-efficient design: The compact molded-case profile optimizes panel space, leaving room for wiring and future expansion in residential, commercial, and light industrial installations.
• Thermal-magnetic protection: A rugged thermal-magnetic trip unit delivers stable, repeatable protection across varying temperatures and load conditions, helping prevent nuisance trips while guarding against faults.
• High-amperage capability: With a 225 A rating at 240 V, it is well-suited for larger branch circuits and feeders without needing multiple smaller breakers.
• OEM panel compatibility: Engineered to match Eaton’s own loadcenters and panelboards, streamlining replacements and inventory management for qualified installers.
• Two-pole design for 240 V circuits: Ensures simultaneous disconnection of both hot conductors for safer, code-compliant shutdown of 240 V circuits.
• Versatile application: Ideal for a range of settings—from home electrical upgrades to light commercial and small industrial deployments—where reliable circuit protection is essential.

What problems does it solve? If you’re updating an aging panel, expanding a subpanel, or engineering a new installation with demanding loads, the ED2225L provides robust protection without crowding the panel. Its reliable trip characteristics minimize downtime and simplify maintenance by reducing the likelihood of unexpected trips on normal operation, while still offering strong defense against short circuits.
