Circuit Breakers

A circuit breaker is an automatically operated electrical switch designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by excess current from an overload or short circuit. Its basic function is to detect a fault condition and immediately discontinue electrical flow. To restore the electrical circuit, the breaker must de-energize first and then be reset by the user.

The IUGF6-32830-10 circuit breaker is designed to provide protection in AC circuits. It is ideal for use in industrial environments where AC circuit protection is required. This type of circuit breaker is a 3-pole thermal magnetic breaker, with a rated operating voltage of 240VAC. It has a rated current of 30A, and a maximum popping time of 4 seconds. It also includes adjustable tripping characteristics for high current limiting, overcurrent and overload protection.

The working principle of the IUGF6-32830-10 circuit breaker is based on the thermal-magnetic effect. During normal operation, the low current level is handled by the thermal effect. The thermal-effect trips the breaker when the current exceeds the pre-set level, by heating up a bimetallic strip. The high current level is handled by the magnetic force generated due to a coil placed around the arc chute. This magnetic force trips the breaker when the current exceeds the pre-set level, by increasing the arc force.

The IUGF6-32830-10 circuit breaker is suitable for a variety of industrial applications, such as motor protection, short circuit protection and over current protection on distribution systems. It is also suitable for electric arc welding, household electrical equipment, electric shavers and also electric lighting. The circuit breaker also provides a measure of protection against fire and shock hazards due to its advanced design.

The IUGF6-32830-10 circuit breaker is an excellent choice for providing protection in a variety of industrial and residential applications. Its thermal-magnetic operation gives the user flexibility in setting tripping characteristics, making it suitable for a variety of current limiting, overcurrent and overload protection requirements. In addition, the circuit breaker is designed to provide protection from both overloads and short circuits, making it a cost-effective solution for protecting both people and equipment.
