APL-6130-2

Circuit breakers are essential components of any electrical and electronic circuits. They are intended to protect the circuit from potential damage or injury that can be caused by short circuits or power surges. The APL-6130-2 is a circuit breaker that is commonly used in various applications.

The APL-6130-2 has an adjustable current rating from 6 to 30 amps, making it ideal for commercial, industrial, and residential applications. It is also UL listed and CSA certified for safety and dependability. The circuit breaker is designed to trip when an overload or short circuit is detected in the circuit it is protecting. This helps to prevent damage to the circuit, as well as potentially serious injury.

The APL-6130-2 is designed to protect electric circuits from excessive current or power surges. When the current exceeds the rating of the circuit breaker, it automatically trips and cuts off the power to the affected circuit. This prevents circuit damage caused by overloads, short circuits, and power surges. The circuit breaker is also equipped with a manual reset switch to allow the circuit breaker to reset and provide power to the circuit again.

The APL-6130-2 is made up of two main components: a bimetallic strip and a reset switch. The bimetallic strip is made of a two metal alloy that will expand and contract when heated. As the temperature of the strip increases, it will start to bend. When the amount of current flowing through the circuit exceeds the rating of the circuit breaker, the heat generated from the current will cause the bimetallic strip to bend and release the latch that holds the switch in the "ON" position. This trips the switch, cutting off the power to the circuit.

The reset switch is then activated when the circuit breaker is manually reset. This will reset the latch and allow the switch to return to its "ON" position, providing power to the circuit again. The reset switch is connected to the bimetallic strip so that the power cannot be turned on until the bimetallic strip has fully reset.

The APL-6130-2 circuit breaker is a reliable and powerful tool for protecting electric circuits from short circuits, overloads, and power surges. It is UL listed and CSA certified for safety and dependability, making it an ideal solution for commercial, industrial, and residential applications. Its adjustable current rating from 6 to 30 amps makes it able to accommodate the needs of various types of circuits. Its manual reset switch ensures that the power can be easily turned off and turned back on with just a few simple steps.
