A breaker is a device that is used to connect and disconnect the buss bars of an electrical panel to the feed end of wires that feed an electrical load. The function of a breaker is to protect the wires from an overload by the use of an internal thermal trip, and to protect the load and wires from a short circuit by use of an internal magnetic trip.
