Circuit breakers are essential components of any electrical system, providing added safety and reliability. The IEL13-30645-18 is a high-performance circuit breaker, designed for industrial applications. This article provides an in-depth look at the application field and working principle of the IEL13-30645-18.

Application Field

The IEL13-30645-18 is designed for industrial applications, where high performance is required. It can handle up to 16,000 Amps, making it suitable for large or demanding applications. It is also UL listed, meaning it meets the quality requirements of most industrial standards. The IEL13-30645-18 is also lightweight, making it easy to install and transport.

In addition, the IEL13-30645-18 is perfect for applications that require both high current capacity and fast response time. It has a trip time of 1.6 seconds, meaning it can respond quickly to overcurrents in critical applications. The IEL13-30645-18 is an excellent choice for applications such as motor control, generators, surge protection equipment, and more.

Working Principle

Like all circuit breakers, the IEL13-30645-18 is designed to protect circuits from overcurrents. When an overcurrent occurs in the circuit, the breaker trips, interrupting the flow of current. This interrupts the circuit and prevents further damage or disruption.

The IEL13-30645-18 operates on a thermal-magnetic principle. A thermal element is triggered by heat generated by current flowing through the circuit. When the heat reaches a certain threshold, the element trips, initiating the breaker to open. At the same time, a magnetic element is triggered by the amount of current in the circuit. When the current reaches a certain level, the element trips the breaker as well.

The IEL13-30645-18 has an adjustable thermal element, allowing the user to set the current level which will trip the breaker. This can be set to match the specific needs of the application, or to provide extra protection. The magnetic element is also adjustable, allowing for a faster response time.

The IEL13-30645-18 can also be used in tandem with automatic transfer switches. When the breaker trips, the transfer switch interrupts the main circuit and brings in a backup power source. This ensures the critical circuits maintain power, minimizing disruptions.

Conclusion

The IEL13-30645-18 is a high-performance circuit breaker from GENERAL ELECTRIC designed for industrial applications. It can handle up to 16,000 Amps, has a fast response time, and is lightweight for easy installation. The IEL13-30645-18 operates on a thermal-magnetic principle and includes adjustable elements, allowing users to match the protection to the requirements of their application. The IEL13-30645-18 can also be used with automatic transfer switches, providing added protection against disruptions.
