Circuit Breakers are electrical switching devices that are used to protect electrical circuits from damage caused by overloads, short circuits and other faulty conditions. The UPGX11-20562-1 circuit breaker is designed to provide protection against these conditions.

UPGX11-20562-1 Application Field

The UPGX11-20562-1 is a circuit breaker designed for both residential and commercial applications. It is a UL listed two-pole circuit breaker that is rated for 125 Volts. This circuit breaker is mainly used in installations operating at 50 Hz or 60 Hz, with a maximum voltage rating of 200 Amps.

The UPGX11-20562-1 is suitable for use in panelboards, switchboards, motor control centers, motor controllers, and other low voltage SWD installations, both in circuits protected by short-circuit and overload protective devices and in circuits having supplementary protectors.

UPGX11-20562-1 Working Principle

The UPGX11-20562-1 works by sensing high current levels in an electrical circuit. When the current exceeds the circuit breaker’s current rating, the device trips and shuts off the power to the circuit. This prevents further damage to the circuit or appliances connected to it. The circuit breaker can be reset manually once it has tripped, allowing the power to be restored to the circuit.

The UPGX11-20562-1 offers three levels of operational protection. The first level is the thermal-magnetic trip unit, which is designed to provide low-level protection against short circuits and overloads. This trip unit takes into account the temperature of the environment in which the breaker is located, to ensure that the circuit remains protected even if the ambient temperature is higher or lower than the normal operating temperature.

The second level of protection is provided by the mechanical trip unit, which is designed to shut off the power if an abnormal current is detected. This is particularly useful in preventing thermal overloads, which can damage the circuit and equipment connected to it. The third level of protection is provided by the ground fault trip unit, which acts to shut off the power if an electrical fault or a lower than normal resistance is detected in the circuit.

The UPGX11-20562-1 circuit breaker is designed to provide protection from overloads, short circuits, ground faults, and thermal overloads. It is designed for indoor use only, and is not suitable for applications requiring an outdoor-rated circuit breaker. Additionally, the circuit breaker should be installed in a location that is not exposed to extreme temperatures, dust, or moisture.
