Circuit Breakers

A circuit breaker is an electrical device designed to prevent electrical circuits from becoming overloaded with extremely high levels of current. The IUG1-1-62-.750-Q-00 circuit breaker, developed by the Industrial Development and Research Council (IDRC) of Taiwan, is a high-performance circuit breaker specifically designed to provide superior protection against overloads.

Application Field

The IUG1-1-62-.750-Q-00 circuit breaker is designed for industrial, commercial and domestic applications. Its wide application field makes it suitable for use in a variety of buildings, from power plants and petrochemical facilities to hospitals, schools and residential homes. The IUG1-1-62-.750-Q-00 circuit breaker is also suitable for use in outdoor environments, including outdoor power sources and substations.

Working Principle

The IUG1-1-62-.750-Q-00 circuit breaker is a dual pole, thermal magnetic circuit breaker which operates using a thermal-magnetic trip mechanism. It works by automatically measuring the amount of current flowing through the circuit and detecting any sudden increase in the current level. If there is an overload or short-circuit, the internal temperature of the breaker will increase, causing the magnetic trip device to instantly activate and trip the breaker. This cuts off the electrical supply and prevents further damage to the device or the wiring.

The IUG1-1-62-.750-Q-00 circuit breaker is also equipped with a current-limiting feature. This feature protects the breaker from being overloaded by reducing the amount of current passing through the circuit when an overload occurs. In addition, the built-in thermal-magnetic trip mechanism also provides short-circuit protection by quickly disconnecting the power supply when a short-circuit is detected.

In addition to providing short-circuit and overload protection, the IUG1-1-62-.750-Q-00 circuit breaker also offers a wide range of other features and benefits. It has a long life expectancy of at least 10 years, thanks to its robust design. Furthermore, it features a high breaking capacity, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications. It is also UL listed, meaning that it has been certified to meet the safety requirements of the Underwriter Laboratories (UL).

Conclusion

The IUG1-1-62-.750-Q-00 circuit breaker is a high-performance breaker specifically designed to provide superior protection against overloads and short-circuits. It is suitable for use in a variety of industrial, commercial and domestic applications, including outdoor settings. It also benefits from a long life expectancy, high breaking capacity, and UL listing.
