Circuit breakers symbols for use in electrical pneumatic and hydraulic schematic diagrams.
The first component is an electromagnet that is sensitive to large surges in electrical currents.
The bimetal serves as a means of handling overcurrents.
Circuit breaker with magnetic overload device 3p.
Circuit breaker with thermal overload device 3p form 2.
Circuit breaker thermal magnetic 1p iec isolators disconnectors fuses contactors overloads.
In american homes today thermal magnetic circuit breakers are the most common type.
Thermal magnetic circuit breakers contain two different switching mechanisms a bimetal switch and an electromagnet.
Small circuit breakers typically have a manual control lever to switch off the load or reset a tripped breaker while larger units use solenoids to trip the mechanism and electric motors to restore.
Circuit breakers may also use the higher current caused by the fault to separate the contacts such as thermal expansion or a magnetic field.
