Industry:Electrical equipment
A method of determining the current by means of detecting the current peaks.
Industry:Electrical equipment
The length of time the circuit breaker will carry a sustained low-level overcurrent before initiating a trip signal.
Industry:Electrical equipment
A mechanically-operated switch which indicates when a circuit breaker has tripped due to overcurrent conditions.
Industry:Electrical equipment
A device which detects an overcurrent and transmits the energy necessary to open the circuit automatically (UL only).
Industry:Electrical equipment
An internal mechanical system which trips the circuit breaker during an overcurrent.
