Eaton EDH2225L - 225 A, 240 V, 2-Pole Circuit Breaker | AmpState

The Eaton EDH2225L is a 225A, 240V, 2-pole molded case circuit breaker designed to deliver reliable branch circuit protection for panelboards and loadcenters. Built for robust overcurrent and short-circuit protection, this unit helps safeguard residential, commercial, and light industrial electrical systems with precision and ease.

• Compact molded-case design: Optimizes panel space, making it easier to fit high-capacity protection without crowding the enclosure.
• Thermal-magnetic trip unit: Delivers stable, repeatable protection across varying temperatures and fault conditions, reducing nuisance trips and enhancing system reliability.
• 2-pole with common trip: Ensures both conductors trip together for complete disconnection of the protected circuit, improving safety and protection integrity.
• High amperage, 225A at 240V: Suited for heavy feeders and significant branch circuits within panelboards and loadcenters used in demanding installations.
• OEM-loadcenter compatibility: Specifically designed to integrate with matching Eaton panelboards and OEM loadcenters, streamlining replacements and upgrades.
• Versatile applications: Ideal for residential service upgrades, commercial distribution panels, and light industrial equipment where dependable protection is essential.

Why this matters in real-world setups

When you’re protecting feeders or critical branch circuits, the EDH2225L’s combination of space efficiency and a reliable thermal-magnetic trip curve translates to fewer panel revisions and more predictable performance under fault or surge conditions. The 2-pole configuration with a common trip is particularly valuable in systems where losing a single conductor could create hazardous or unbalanced conditions.
