IEG6666-1-52-30.0-01-V

Circuit breakers are electrical devices that protect electrical systems from overloads, electrical shorts, or other hazards. The IEG6666-1-52-30.0-01-V circuit breaker is a popular model specifically designed for application in industrial and commercial operations. This article will explain the application field of the IEG6666-1-52-30.0-01-V circuit breaker and its working principle.

Application Field

The IEG6666-1-52-30.0-01-V circuit breaker is suitable for operation on the 50/60Hz power supply. It is rated up to 30 Amps at either 600V or 480V AC. The breaker features a single pole with a thermal magnetic trip mechanism. The trip mechanism provides short circuit protection, as well as overload protection and thermal protection. This allows the breaker to be used in many industrial and commercial applications. Industrial applications include control circuits, power supplies, and general purpose power distribution circuits. The breaker can also be used in commercial applications such as restaurant circuit hook-ups, retail store circuit hook-ups, office buildings, and more.

Working Principle

The IEG6666-1-52-30.0-01-V circuit breaker works according to a two-stage principle. In the first stage, a thermal-magnetic trip unit is used to monitor current in the circuit. If the current rises above a certain level, the trip unit will activate to trips the breaker. In the second stage, if there is a significant current build-up in the circuit, the breaker will activate a magnetic field to balance the current in the circuit and open the breaker. This prevents damage to the circuit from an overload or short circuit, while still allowing the breaker to reset and keep the circuit working.

Conclusion

The IEG6666-1-52-30.0-01-V circuit breaker is a popular model, designed for industrial and commercial applications. It features a single pole with a thermal-magnetic trip mechanism, which provides short-circuit protection, thermal protection, and overload protection. The two-stage working principle of the breaker ensures that the circuit is protected from overloads or shorts, while also allowing for it to be reset and the circuit to continue to function.
