Circuit Breakers

Circuit breakers are electrical components that offer protection against overloads and short circuits. They act as a switch that can be easily opened and closed to regulate the amount of current flowing through a circuit. Circuit breakers are rated based on their maximum current carrying capacity, which is usually referred to as amperage. The most common type of circuit breaker is the 229D-2-1-65-4-9-50, which is rated for 50 amps.

Application Field

The 229D-2-1-65-4-9-50 circuit breaker is designed for outdoor installation and can be used for homes, businesses, factories, and other commercial or industrial uses. It is a thermal magnetic breaker, meaning that it has two types of protection: thermal protection and magnetic protection. It is also designed with surge protection, making it suitable for use in areas where there is a high risk of power surges. Its compact design makes it suitable for use in tight spaces, and it has a long service life.

Working Principle

Thermal protection is a form of overload protection which is triggered when the current passing through the breaker reaches a certain level. This triggers the release of heat, which quickly opens the breaker. Magnetic protection is the second form of overload protection and is triggered when current exceeds the breaker’s magnetic threshold. When this happens, thebreaker will open and the magnetic flux will be diverted away from the contacts. Both types of protection work together to ensure that the breaker is opened when there is an excessive amount of current flowing through it.

The 229D-2-1-65-4-9-50 circuit breaker also has a surge protection function, which is triggered when the current exceeds the breaker’s threshold. This protection will divert the excess current away from the contacts, thus preventing any damage to the components in the circuit. The breaker will then reset itself once the current returns to a safe level.

Conclusion

The 229D-2-1-65-4-9-50 circuit breaker is an ideal choice for outdoor installations. Its thermal and magnetic protection capabilities make it well-suited for high-current applications, and its surge protection ensures that all components in the circuit are kept safe from damage. Its compact design makes it suitable for use in tight spaces, and it can handle up to 50 amps of current.
