What Type of equipment of circuit breaker?
Well from my experience , i know that the equipment used for testing is called, Electroclysis Differentiator with a Dicasidace Robinium resistor.
How does a circuit breaker know that the voltage is high or low and trip off?
A circuit breaker doesn't respond to excessive voltages, but to excessive currents (overcurrents). A miniature circuit breaker, the type you have at home, has a bimetallic strip and a coil, either of which will initiate a trip in response to excessive temperature (overload currents) or excessive magnetic flux density (short-circuit currents).
Can some body show me Electrical circuit diagram of Molded case circuit breakers?
Circuit breakers do not have circuit diagrams. The breakers have an input where the distribution voltage is applied and an output where the load is applied. If you want to know what is inside a breaker, the electrical terminology to use is "shop drawings" of the specific breaker that you need information on.
A 32A breaker was controlling a lighting circuit but is now on a 6A breaker which is now buzzing what should you do?
Answer for countries in Europe and other world areas running a 50 Hz supply service.Depending on the load of your lighting circuit. I would measure the current with an inductive amp meter. once you know the current required for your lighting circuit, you then install a circuit breaker which is 15% higher than your load. eg, load is 10A. 10A load + 15 % = 12A breaker (15 A is ok as the breaker is used to protect the wiring and should be rated in consequence of your wiring by 25% less or its current rating, or less, not the load)The humming of your lighting circuit breaker indicates that your breaker is either faulty, or having a difficult time keeping a closed circuit. Or simply that the manufacturer produced a breaker that hums by nature of its construction.
How do circuit breakers apply to expansion?
A circuit breaker works by tripping a switch when too much current passes through it. As you may know, the higher the flow of energy, given a fixed resistance, the more heat will be generated. Because of this property, the heating of a metal strip (usually made from 2 different types of metals, so that it bends) is the mechanism for circuit discontinuation in a circuit breaker.
Will a circuit breaker be the cause of an air conditioner not turning on?
It is possible if the circuit breaker has tripped or is faulty. The best way to check is by unplugging the air conditioner, and plugging in a table lamp. If the lamp lights up, then you know that the circuit breaker is working, if not then it is faulty.
When was first air circuit breaker launched?
i dont know ask your family

Where is circuit breaker 2003 Chevy s 10?
There are several circuit breakers in that vehicle, need to know which one you are looking for.
Why do you convert 120v circuits to 220v circuits?
You would need to change a circuits voltage if your adding a load that requires 220 when the present circuit supplies 120. If you need to do so it's pretty simple! First purchase a double pole breaker at the proper amp rating. Next find the breaker in the panel that supplies power to the circuit you wish to change to 220. Turn off the breaker and pull it out. Find the neutral for that circuit. Then double check and make sure it's the right neutral. Then check one more time. Now take the neutral and the hot wire for that circuit and connect them to the double pole breaker. install the breaker into the panel and turn it on. If you connected the right neutral you'll have 220 on that circuit. If you didn't you'll know because you'll trip the breaker.
What causes circuit breaker to trip even when it's properly rated?
A circuit breaker is dual function. The only time it will trip is if it senses a fault current that is rated higher than the breaker rating (short circuit). The other trip condition is if the circuit is overloaded and is drawing a current higher than the breaker rating. On breakers that protect motor feeders the breaker has to be rated 250% higher than the motors full load amperage. If the breaker has lots of use and is used for a switch being manually turned off and on will weaken the trip value of the breaker. If you have access to, or know an electrician, a clamp on amp meter on the conductor that the breaker feeds will tell you what is happening. Clamp the line and turn on the load to see exactly what the current is. If, like you say, the breaker is properly rated and the current is within the breaker limits then change out the breaker for a new one.
Where is polaris predator 500 fuse?
there isn't a fuse, before the starter solenoid there is a circuit breaker 20 amp, let me know if you need a diagram i need a diagram
Should 25 amps breaker be replaced by 20 amps?
For typical residential house wiring 12 AWG wire is required for a 20 Amp breaker. If you change out the breaker for a 25 A breaker you would have to rewire the circuit with 10 AWG. In that case you could up the breaker to 30 Amps. All outlets and switches should be rated at the same voltage and current as the breaker.

What makes a circuit breaker go bad?
A circuit breaker can go bad from being tripped too many times. Many people don't understand that the tripping of a circuit breaker indicates a problem that needs to be corrected. They usually just reset the circuit breaker, leading to a very common second (or third, or fourth) trip. Circuit breakers tripping are for the prevention of fire due to excessive heat in the circuit. They're not supposed to be tripped repeatedly. This can wear the breaker out. Believe it or not, I've also seen circuit breakers fail to re-energize after being turned off. I speculate this was actually caused by the breaker never having been cycled (it was a main breaker), and the time elapsed since it was installed. Electrical equipment doesn't last forever. It's the same as anything else.
