Functional Features
- Overcurrent Protection: Thermal-magnetic trip unit for overload and short-circuit protection.
- Circuit Isolation: Provides safe disconnect for maintenance.
- Adjustable Trip Settings: Configurable trip points for specific application needs.
Application Scenarios
Main power distribution panels, motor control centers, and industrial feeder protection.
Performance Parameters
- Interrupting Capacity: High AIC rating for fault current interruption.
- Trip Accuracy: Precise thermal and magnetic trip characteristics.
Material Composition
Thermoset plastic housing, silver-alloy contacts, and bimetallic thermal elements.
Structural Characteristics
Compact molded case design with toggle handle, trip indicator, and line/load terminals.
Working Principle
Thermal element responds to sustained overloads, while magnetic element responds to short circuits, mechanically tripping the breaker to open the circuit.
Installation Requirements
- Mount in an approved enclosure with adequate ventilation.
- Torque line and load connections to manufacturer specifications.
- Verify proper phase rotation and grounding.
Usage Precautions
- Never exceed the interrupting capacity rating.
- Perform periodic breaker testing to verify trip function.
- Do not operate a breaker that has tripped on a fault without investigation.
