Circuit breakers are essential electrical protection devices that automatically interrupt the flow of electricity in case of overloads, short circuits, or faults, ensuring safety and preventing damage to electrical systems. Different types of circuit breakers are used based on voltage levels, applications, and protection requirements.
MCBs are small, low-voltage circuit breakers designed for residential, commercial, and industrial applications to protect electrical circuits from overloads and short circuits.
✅ Rated Current: Up to 125A
✅ Voltage Rating: Up to 415V
✅ Trip Mechanism: Thermal-magnetic operation
✅ Applications: Homes, offices, small businesses, and low-power industrial circuits
✅ Advantages:
MCCBs offer higher current ratings and enhanced protection compared to MCBs, making them suitable for industrial and commercial power systems.
✅ Rated Current: 16A to 1600A
✅ Voltage Rating: Up to 1000V
✅ Trip Mechanism: Thermal-magnetic and electronic trip options
