install breaker in panel and put the hot wire on the breaker and also there should be a place for the neutral on the breaker also both wires will be landed on the breaker in different spots and then take the white wire that is coiled on breaker and land it on the neutral bar
Arc fault circuit interrupter breaker. These devices work and act like a traditional circuit breaker except that they are smarter. Many of these new devices contain small filters and logic devices that allow them to sense an arc just as it is about to produce the sparks and intense heat. If arcing conditions are present, then the breaker trips instantaneously.
Do not confuse these devices with the personal protection ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCI) that have been around for over 30 years. The GFCI circuit breakers, at the present time, do not have the capability to sense arcs.
The new arc fault circuit breakers are identified in section 210-12 of the 1999 edition of the National Electric Code. they were required to protect branch circuits that serve residential Bedrooms
If the fault was on the 20 amp branch circuit, the branch circuit breaker should have tripped, not the main breaker. Call a qualified electrician to check out your wiring.
The generator circuit breaker or gcb is a circuit breaker which is connected with the generator . Whenever there is a fault in the generator the circuit breaker trips and disconnects the generator from operation thus it helps the place from a serious accident etc..
A GFCI device in a breaker is intended to trip the breaker open when a ground fault is sensed in the circuit that the breaker is protecting.
Electric circuit need a main circuit breaker that can protect the whole circuit from short circuit even in ground fault. It's safer if you use breaker with built in ground protection.
GFCI=Ground Fault Circuit InterrupterIt's an electronic circuit breaker that compares the current on two wires. If the current is NOT equal, the breaker trips and does so quickly enough to prevent electrocution in the event of a "ground fault".
Before you change a circuit breaker it has to be established that the breaker is at fault and not some other part of the circuit.
If the fault was on the 20 amp branch circuit, the branch circuit breaker should have tripped, not the main breaker. Call a qualified electrician to check out your wiring.
In North America they are known as a GFCI. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter breaker.
You don't calculate the rated kV.A of a circuit breaker; it's determined by the manufacturer. It's important that a circuit breaker's rated kV.A exceeds the fault level kV.A at the point where the circuit breaker is located, otherwise it may fail to interrupt a fault current and, possibly, self destruct.
An electrical breaker is a safety device used to open a circuit that has an electrical fault on it.
The generator circuit breaker or gcb is a circuit breaker which is connected with the generator . Whenever there is a fault in the generator the circuit breaker trips and disconnects the generator from operation thus it helps the place from a serious accident etc..
Ground fault relays sense ground faults in the circuit and trigger a circuit breaker to trip off
A GFCI device in a breaker is intended to trip the breaker open when a ground fault is sensed in the circuit that the breaker is protecting.
Electric circuit need a main circuit breaker that can protect the whole circuit from short circuit even in ground fault. It's safer if you use breaker with built in ground protection.

ELCB means Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker -- it is used to trip the Circuit breaker if any leakage fault occured means
GFCI = Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter.
