handling the circuit breaker
The most common types of circuit breaker used are MCBs. (Miniature Circuit Breakers.)The most common type of breaker used in most every residence in the U.S.A. is the non-adjustable trip breaker.
There isn't, the contacts in a circuit breaker are plated with silver.
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.
A ring main circuit for example is: key: circuit breaker=0 cable=---- socket=[] bends in cable=/ and \ Using the key this is a demonatration. 0---[]-----[]-------[]------[]---[]---\ \---[]-----[]-----[]----[]-------[]---/ Just imagine that there is only 1 circuit breaker in that circuit, both ends of the ring main should link up to that 1 breaker. A radial circuit consists of just 1 cable going to the circuit breaker with sockets on the cable but there is no return path on a radial. A ring main is just like a big circle with 2 ends of cable and sockets around the circle=both ends of the cable linking to the circuit breaker.
If you are talking about an electrical ring main it can be as long as you want it as long as it returns back to the circuit breaker with the other end of the cable, which if you didn't return the 2nd end of the cable to the circuit breaker you would have a radial circuit.

A circuit breaker is a switching device which can make,brake and carrying (or trip the circuit) that specified over currents for a small interval of time . There is a different types of Circuit Breaker's are there 1.According to their arc quenching media these are divided into 4 types a) Oil circuit breaker b) Air blast circuit breaker c) SF6 circuit breaker d) vacuum circuit breaker 2. According to their services the circuit breaker can be divided as a) Outdoor Circuit Breaker b) Indoor Breaker 3. According to the operating mechanism of circuit breaker they can be divided as a) Spring operated Circuit Breaker b) Pneumatic Circuit Breaker c) Hydrolic Circuit Breaker 4. According to the voltage level of installation these are divided into 3 types a) High Voltage Circuit Breaker b) Medium Voltage Circuit Breaker c) Low Voltage Circuit Breaker.
The circuit breaker for the headlights is intergrated with the headlight switch.
Answer for UK, Europe and countries running a 50 Hz supply service.A ring circuit has two routes to each outlet, a radial has only one.
handling the circuit breaker
is there an error if the upstream circuit breaker is 16A TP and the downstream circuit breaker is 16A TPN?
Where I'm from, it's called a "circuit breaker".A circuit breaker.

No, a circuit breaker is a safety device that is used in a circuit to limit the amount of current in an overload or short circuit condition. The number on a breaker is the top end current that the breaker will handle before opening the circuit.
A non-auto circuit breaker is a circuit breaker with the trip element removed. Basically, it is a modified circuit breaker that is now a disconnect switch (glorified disconnect switch).
