8340-G211-K3F5-A4H111-3A Circuit Protection

A circuit breaker, also known as a main switch, is an electrical device used to protect circuits from damage caused by excessive current, overheating and arcing due to defective wiring. In general, circuit breakers are divided into three categories, namely, AC circuit breakers, DC circuit breakers, and combination circuit breakers.

The 8340-G211-K3F5-A4H111-3A circuit breaker is a type of AC circuit breaker. This type of breaker is a three-phase switch mode protective device and is typically used for single and three-phase circuit protection in circuit-breakers up to 1000 volts AC. It is capable of interrupting and tripping power from any phase of the AC power source in the event of an overload or short circuit. In general, this type of breaker is designed to operate at a current rating of up to 1600A for short circuit protection.

The working principle of the 8340-G211-K3F5-A4H111-3A circuit breaker is the same as any other AC circuit breaker. When the current in the circuit exceeds the maximum level, the overload sensor triggers a thermal relay or magnetic trip that triggers the breaker to open the circuit and stop the power flow.

The application field of the 8340-G211-K3F5-A4H111-3A circuit breaker is wide. It is commonly used in distribution systems, industrial machinery, and HVAC applications. It is also suitable for use in residential, industrial and commercial applications, providing protection from overcurrent, short circuit and overload conditions. It is also suitable for distribution systems with multiple power sources as it can safely break the circuit from whichever source the current is coming from.

The 8340-G211-K3F5-A4H111-3A circuit breaker is an effective and reliable type of AC circuit breaker. It is designed to offer reliable protection and can easily be installed in any single and three-phase circuit. Moreover, this type of breaker is suitable for both residential and commercial applications.
