Product details

SE3*63 - SAMITE CIRCUIT BREAKER(*=1,2,3)

DESCRIPTION / APPLICATION

A circuit breaker is an automatically operated electrical switch designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by excess current from an overload or short circuit. Its basic function is to interrupt current flow after a fault is detected. Circuit breakers are rated both by the normal current that they are expected to carry, and the maximum short-circuit current that they can safely interrupt. This latter figure is the ampere interrupting capacity (AIC) of the breaker. It is in conformity with IEC 60947 standard.

TEMPERATURE DERATING

The maximum permissible current in a circuit breaker depends on the ambient temperature where the circuit breaker is placed. Ambient temperature is the temperature inside the enclosure or switchboard in which the circuit breakers are installed. South Africa is calibrated at 40°C.
