Circuit Breakers

Circuit breakers are devices that safely interrupt an electric power circuit in case of an overload or short circuit. This critical safety feature prevents damage to wiring, fixtures, and other components. In modern electrical systems, they are also commonly used as a switching mechanism in order to control or adjust the flow of electrical power without having to constantly open and close the service entrance switch.

IULNK1-36337-20 circuit breaker is one type of circuit breaker designed to control the electric circuits in power plants, homes and other electric equipment. This type of circuit breaker has a number of basic components, including a housing, a contact holder, a tripping release, and a control system.

Application Field

The IULNK1-36337-20 circuit breaker is mainly used to protect electrical circuits from overload and short circuit conditions. It can be installed in homes and commercial buildings for protection against water damage, lightning strikes, and power outages. Additionally, it is also suitable for a wide range of industrial applications, such as motor control centers, transformers, and other power distribution systems.

Working Principle

IULNK1-36337-20 circuit breaker works by using two metal contacts that are connected to an electric circuit. When current is flowing through the circuit, the contacts make and break the electrical connection. The contacts are held together by a spring which is kept in tension by an electro-magnetic tripping mechanism. When a fault occurs, an electric pulse is sent through the tripping mechanism which causes the spring to relax and the contacts to separate breaking the circuit.

The IULNK1-36337-20 circuit breaker is designed to be very reliable and have a short response time. The tripping mechanism is triggered when the current reaches a certain level, allowing the contacts to separate and effectively breaking the circuit before any damage is caused. They are also designed with safety features, such as an isolation chamber, which prevents sparks or flames from escaping in the event of a fault.

IULNK1-36337-20 circuit breaker is a reliable, efficient, and cost-effective way of controlling electrical circuits and protecting them from damage. They are ideal for both domestic and industrial applications and can provide protection against water damage, lightning strikes, and power outages.
