- Company Profile:
A combination of adjustable trip functions including long-time ampere rating, long-time delay, instantaneous pickup, ground-fault pickup and ground-fault delay.
Industry:Electrical equipment
A device used with a crane, chain block or an optional lifting mechanism supplied with switchgear for removing and installing a drawout circuit breaker or fuse truck.
Industry:Electrical equipment
A combination of adjustable trip functions including long-time ampere rating, long-time delay, and instantaneous pickup.
Industry:Electrical equipment
The peak current (measured in amperes) which passes through an overcurrent protective device during an interruption.
Industry:Electrical equipment
A mechanically-operated switch which senses if the trip latch is reset.
Industry:Electrical equipment
A qualifying term indicating there is purposely introduced a delay in the tripping action of the circuit breaker, which delay decreases as the magnitude of the current increases.
Industry:Electrical equipment
The highest current at rated voltage available at the incoming terminals of the circuit breaker. When the circuit breaker can be used at more than one voltage, the interrupting rating will be shown on the circuit breaker for each voltage level. The interrupting rating of a circuit breaker must be equal to or greater than the available short-circuit current at the point at which the circuit breaker is applied to the system.
Industry:Electrical equipment
A trip unit which can be interchanged by a user among circuit breaker frames of the same design.
Industry:Electrical equipment
Equipment ground-fault protection on grounded neutral systems provided by components internal to the circuit breaker.
