Working Mechanism
- These circuit breakers use a combination of heat and magnetism to detect and respond to overcurrents.
- A bimetallic strip inside the breaker bends when it gets hot.
- This movement causes a spring-loaded contact to open and break the circuit.
- There is also an electromagnet that is activated when the current exceeds a certain level.
- The electromagnet pulls the contact together and trips the breaker, causing the circuit to open.
Frequently Asked Questions
