Circuit Breakers

The IEGBX1-1REC5-40466-25-V is a circuit breaker, a device designed to protect electronic circuits from being overloaded. It is a critical component of any electronic device as a short circuit or overload can potentially cause fire, damage devices, and even cause injury. In order to ensure safety, the correct circuit breaker must be selected for the specific application.

Application Field and Working Principle

The IEGBX1-1REC5-40466-25-V circuit breaker is suitable for use in residential, industrial and commercial applications. Its working principle is simple in that it detects an overload or short circuit on a circuit and then automatically opens the relevant circuit, disconnecting it from the power source before any serious damage is done. It does this by using an electromechanical trip mechanism which trips the breaker when an overcurrent is detected.

The trip mechanism works by measuring the current passing through the circuit, and when the current exceeds the rated current of the device, the mechanism trips the breaker, preventing any further current from flowing through the circuit and effectively isolating it from the power source.

In addition to providing protection against overloads and short circuits, the IEGBX1-1REC5-40466-25-V circuit breaker also has other useful features such as a manual reset button, an adjustable trip current setting, and adjustable trip delay settings.

These adjustable settings can be used to customize the circuit breaker to different applications and requirements, allowing it to function optimally in a wide range of scenarios. This flexibility allows it to be used in both residential and commercial applications, making it an ideal choice for protecting sensitive electronic circuits.
