8340-T120-K1T2-ALH0-40A

Circuit breakers are vital components in today’s electrical systems, playing a crucial role in controlling the flow of electricity through residential and commercial buildings. Specifically, their purpose is to prevent electrical overloads from damaging both the equipment and the valuable data and people inside. The 8340-T120-K1T2-ALH0-40A is a high-quality yet low-cost circuit breaker designed for residential use. Its application field and working principle will be discussed in this article.

The 8340-T120-K1T2-ALH0-40A circuit breaker is designed for residential applications that require greater current carrying capacity than standard lugs and wires can accommodate. These include three-way connection points, multiple branch circuits, as well as GFCI protected circuits. It is an ideal solution for residential electricians looking to protect larger installations from both overloads and short-circuits.

The 8340-T120-K1T2-ALH0-40A circuit breaker is designed to protect the electrical equipment, wiring, and people inside from any possible overvoltage or current flow that may damage them. It works by detecting the level of voltage or current and then cutting off any additional source of electricity if it exceeds the rated level by tripping the switch and interrupting the circuit. Additionally, this type of breaker also provides additional protection against short circuits, by sensing if the current has exceeded the rated level and then opening the switch to prevent further damage.

The 8340-T120-K1T2-ALH0-40A circuit breaker is equipped with a sensing mechanism that detects if the current flow is reaching the rated level and then immediately trips the switch. The shorter trip times of this type of breaker allow it to protect the circuit more quickly, thereby preventing any possible electrical damage due to overloads or short circuits.

The 8340-T120-K1T2-ALH0-40A circuit breaker is designed for residential use and is a great option for electricians looking for a reliable and cost-effective solution. Its short trip time and consistent performance ensure a safe and reliable circuit protection for residential applications, giving homeowners the peace of mind that their electrical system is safe from overloads and short-circuits.
