The first compact commercial circuit breaker was launched by Stotz in 1923 which combines both the thermal & magnetic protection functions. After that, his team developed a circuit breaker device to replace a fuse. This device has a component, once it is heated it will enable a disconnecting device and once it is cooled, then it is turned on again. There are many companies that have been developing circuit breakers continually which range from … [Read more...]

A circuit breaker is one type of electrical switching device used to control & also protect the power system, either automatically or manually from any harm occurred by short circuits or overload. The main function of the circuit breaker is to obstruct the flow of current once the protective relays notice a fault like electrical fires, shocks, and the electrocution risk. These are classified into different types based on different factors, location of … [Read more...]
