Circuit Breakers

Circuit breakers protect circuits from overloads and short circuits, and you can reset them after a trip. They're the main overcurrent protection in control panels, switchboards and distribution equipment.

Breaker Types

• Miniature circuit breakers (MCBs) – DIN rail control circuit protection
• Molded case circuit breakers (MCCBs) – higher currents
• Supplementary protectors – equipment protection
• Motor circuit protectors – motor branch circuits
• Ground-fault breakers – personnel protection

Choosing a Breaker

Select current rating, voltage, poles, trip curve and interrupting rating. Confirm UL listing for your application, whether branch circuit (UL 489) or supplementary (UL 1077).
