What are the benefits of hydraulic-magnetic technology?

What are the benefits of hydraulic-magnetic technology?

Answer

A circuit breaker transforms a change in an electric current to a mechanical movement that interrupts the circuit. A thermal circuit breaker does this through a bimetal element that heats up and bends. Therefore, heat trips the circuit breaker.

In a hydraulic-magnetic circuit breaker, the current travels through a coil that generates a magnetic field that trips the circuit breaker. Therefore, heat is not a factor in tripping a hydraulic-magnetic circuit breaker. This means that a hydraulic-magnetic circuit breaker is always tripped by rated current, regardless of the ambient temperature. Other benefits include smaller module size and lower critical resistance.

What is the difference between a switch disconnector and isolator?

What is the Mid Trip feature?

Will the breaker trip, even if the handle is blocked?

Will the breaker trip, even if the handle is blocked?

Answer

YES, absolutely it cannot be restrained from tripping if required as a safety measure!

Even with the handle held in the ON position, the breaker will trip if an overcurrent / overload trip occurs, safely disconnecting the load.

This feature is called “trip free” and is contained in all relevant product specifications.

There would be no point in preventing a circuit breaker from full function. It is therefore very important to purchase circuit breakers from a good quality supplier, known to produce a quality product.

Circuit breakers form part of essential equipment employed to keep electrical equipment safe for use!
