The circuit breaker has the following features: rated voltage, rated current In, setting range of tripping current for overload protection and short circuit protection, rated short-circuit breaking current (industrial circuit breaker or Household circuit breaker), etc.. When they occur serious overload or short circuit and under-voltage fault can automatically cut off the circuit, which function is equivalent to the switch and the combination of over/under heat relay.
