Circuit breakers are electrical switches designed to protect devices and systems from damage caused by overload or short circuits. The IEG6-31958-1-V is a type of circuit breaker developed by the IEC that is ideally suited for a range of applications. This article will discuss the application field of the IEG6-31958-1-V and its working principle.

The IEG6-31958-1-V circuit breaker is suitable for applications where a moderate overload level is present. Examples include industrial excavators, heavy-duty earthmovers, loaders and cranes. The breaker is also suitable for applications where a low-level overload is present, such as lawnmowers, lawn tractors and lawn edgers. In addition, the breaker is can be used for applications where a low-level short circuit may occur, as well as applications where an intermittent or pulsating overload is present.

The IEG6-31958-1-V circuit breaker features an adjustable overload trip mechanism. This allows the user to adjust the trip point of the circuit breaker to suit the requirements of the application. The designers of the IEG6-31958-1-V have also accounted for the possibility of line voltage fluctuation, as the breaker will reset itself automatically if the voltage drops below a certain level. This feature helps to ensure that the device or system protected by the breaker is not damaged by voltage spikes.

The IEG6-31958-1-V circuit breaker works on a bimetallic principle. In essence, the action of the breaker is based on the different amounts of expansion of two alloys which are bonded together in the same package. These two alloys experience different amounts of thermal expansion when heated, which causes the breaker to make or break a specific circuit connection. The temperature of the circuit breaker can be manually adjusted via a knob on the side of the breaker, allowing the user to set a specific trip point.

When the current flowing through the breaker exceeds the preset trip point, the bimetallic strip in the breaker heats up and bends, causing the contacts in the circuit breaker to open. This results in the interruption of current in the circuit, thus protecting the components in the circuit from damage due to overheating. When the current drops below the preset trip point, the bimetallic strip cools down and returns to its original shape, allowing the contacts to close and restore power to the system.

In summary, the IEG6-31958-1-V is a circuit breaker specifically designed to protect devices and systems from damage due to overload or short circuits. The breaker is suitable for a wide range of applications, from applications where moderate overloads may occur, to applications where low-level short circuits may occur. The breaker works on a bimetallic principle and is adjustable, allowing the user to set a specific trip point. By choosing the right circuit breaker for specific applications, valuable time and money can be saved due to increased effectiveness and safety.
