These low voltage molded case circuit breakers are utilized to switch and protect the supply cables and other electrical equipment from overloads and short circuit failures. They contain high circuit breaking capacity that goes up to 100 kA.
These devices have other functions like remote on/off operation, under voltage protection, and can also be used as a main switch. They can be acquired in voltages that range from 20 A up to 1600 A in 3 and 4 pole versions, as well as in thermal magnetic and microprocessor's versions. They contain slight dimensions and modular sizes. They can also be installed with field accessories up to 1600A frame size series 2. These low voltage circuit breakers has minimized energy let through and tripping time that helps lessen damage after fault. Moreover, they have a short peak, short current voltage that minimizes electrodynamic stresses on conductors.
