Circuit Breakers

Circuit breakers are designed to protect against dangerous levels of current flowing through electrical systems. They are critical components in the electrical system and must be chosen carefully for the application. One of the more common breakers used in residential and commercial applications is the IEGF6-35459-30-V breaker, which has many unique and beneficial features. This article will discuss the application and working principle of the IEGF6-35459-30-V breaker.

Applications

The IEGF6-35459-30-V breaker is designed for residential and commercial applications. It is UL classified and CSA-certified for low-voltage applications up to 600V. The breaker requires less than 17 inches of wiring space and is ideal for tight applications. It is suitable for use in subpanels, service entrance equipment, as well as many other applications. The breaker is also compatible with quick-make and quick-break devices, making installation and maintenance much easier.

Working Principle

The IEGF6-35459-30-V breaker features a thermal-magnetic system to protect against dangerous levels of current. The working principle of this system is based on the idea that when there is an over-current through the circuit, the generated heat causes the breaker to trip, breaking the circuit and protecting the system. The thermal element works as a bimetal which changes its shape when heated. This shape shift in turn causes a mechanism which releases the contacts and trips the circuit. This process happens within 5 milliseconds. A magnetic trip is also included to protect the breaker from further damage. The magnetic trip detects excessive current and trips the breaker quickly.

The IEGF6-35459-30-V breaker also features a 3-stage contact system. This system is based on the idea that when too much current flows through the circuit, an armature spring is released which activates the two trip arms. The trip arms then contact the two center contacts, causing the breaker to trip. The 3-stage contact system is designed to provide an extra level of protection, preventing electrical fires and other hazards. The IEGF6-35459-30-V breaker is also designed with a manual reset button for resetting the breaker after it trips.

Conclusion

The IEGF6-35459-30-V breaker is an ideal choice for residential and commercial applications. With its UL approval and CSA certification, as well as its thermal-magnetic working mechanism and 3-stage contact system, the breaker provides superior protection and convenience. The breaker also features a manual reset button, making it easy to reset after a trip, allowing the user to quickly restore power. The IEGF6-35459-30-V breaker is an ideal choice for a wide range of residential and commercial applications.
