1- Circuit Breaker:
Circuit breaker is an electromechanical safety device which is used for switching of electrical circuit with
protection as
overload and short circuit. It protects the system as mechanical function. When any fault or interruption in
an
electrical circuit then it will trip and equipment will safe.
Different types circuit breakers are used according equipment capacity, fault severity, low voltage or high
voltage etc.
