2. Circuit breaker analyzer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_breaker_analyzer

   A circuit breaker analyzer is an instrument that measures the parameters of a circuit breaker. [1] In 1984, Megger patented a digital circuit breaker analyzer, controlled by a microprocessor. in 2020 few companies develop software to control circuit breaker analyzers from different devices such as computers, tablet computer, smartphones and ...

3. Reference designator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_designator

   A reference designator unambiguously identifies the location of a component within an electrical schematic or on a printed circuit board. The reference designator usually consists of one or two letters followed by a number, e.g. C3, D1, R4, U15. The number is sometimes followed by a letter, indicating that components are grouped or matched with ...

4. Breaking capacity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breaking_capacity

   Breaking capacity or interrupting rating [1] [2] is the current that a fuse, circuit breaker, or other electrical apparatus is able to interrupt without being destroyed or causing an electric arc with unacceptable duration. The prospective short-circuit current that can occur under short circuit conditions should not exceed the rated breaking ...

5. Residual-current device - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residual-current_device

   A residual-current device (RCD), residual-current circuit breaker (RCCB) or ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) is an electrical safety device that interrupts an electrical circuit when the current passing through a conductor is not equal and opposite in both directions, therefore indicating leakage current to ground or current flowing to another powered conductor.

6. ANSI device numbers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI_device_numbers

   In Electrical Power Systems and Industrial Automation, ANSI Device Numbers can be used to identify equipment and devices in a system such as relays, circuit breakers, or instruments. The device numbers are enumerated in ANSI/IEEE Standard C37.2 "Standard for Electrical Power System Device Function Numbers, Acronyms, and Contact Designations".

7. Circuit breaker - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_breaker

   A circuit breaker is an electrical safety device designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by current in excess of that which the equipment can safely carry ( overcurrent ). Its basic function is to interrupt current flow to protect equipment and to prevent fire. Unlike a fuse, which operates once and then must be replaced, a ...
