Description

This tutorial contains the general details of circuit breakers, including their operation, type, and models. It is divided into two parts.In this part, we will learn about the circuit breakers used in the electrical panel.Knowledge of circuit protection devices is vast and important in the field of electrical panels. This section contains many facts and details.A circuit breaker is an automatic switch that is designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by excess current from an overload or short circuit.Its basic function is to block the current flow after a fault is detected. Unlike a fuse normally used for this purpose, a circuit breaker is unique in that it can be set to resume normal operation once it has been activated.All circuit breaker systems have common features in their operation, but details vary substantially depending on the voltage, current rating, and type of circuit breaker.The circuit breaker detects a fault condition in the electrical circuit. In low current circuit breakers, this is usually detected within the device itself.This is part 1 video that consists of seven video classes. Such as introduction, Air circuit breakers, know about the parts of ACB, user settings, important internal parts, working of arc chutes, and working principles of ACB.
