What is a difference between 10KA and 22KA circuit breakers?

The previous answer is incorrect, and I would advise that user to not give out information if they are going to give completely misguided information. The interrupting rating of a breaker is the maximum current that the breaker is designed to handle, at the breaker's rated voltage, before damage will occur to the breaker. A breaker will trip at FAR LESS than the interrupting rating, but it is extremely dangerous to expose the breaker to any situation where it will have more than the rated interruption current. the breaker is designed for. The reason some breakers are rated at 22kA instead of 10kA is because they typically have far larger conductors hooked up to them, so with the lowered impedance on the circuit there is more of a chance for the breaker to experience a higher fault current at the breaker. So electricians install 22kA breakers to handle the higher "available fault current."


What is the rated short circuit capacity of the miniature circuit breaker used?

Breaking Current: The r.m.s value of short circuit current at the instant of contact separation.


Where can Square D circuit breakers be purchased?

Square D circuit breakers can be purchased from various homeware and DIY stores such as Home Depot or Lowes. Websites that specialise in circuit breakers such as Circuit Breaker Service or All Breakers do sell them as well.


What breakers are compatible with ge breaker boxes?

GE circuit breakers with catalog numbers ranging from THQL1115 through to THQL1150 can be substituted like for like with Cutler-Hammer circuit breakers coded CL115 through to CL150, ITE Siemens circuit breakers coded Q115 through to Q150 and Square D circuit breakers coded HOM115 through to HOM150. These are single pole breakers. GE circuit breakers with catalog codes from THQL2115 through to THQL2150 can be substituted with Cutler-Hammer circuit breakers CL215 through to CL250, Square D circuit breakers HOM215 through to HOM250 and ITE Siemens circuit breakers Q215 through to Q250 of the same amperage and voltage. These are double pole breakers.


Where are the circuit breakers on a 2000 chev Tahoe?

most circuit breakers are under the hood near the battery. major breakers. you have to unscrew cover.


Is gold used in circuit breakers?

Certainly not in the case of high-voltage circuit breakers. Probably not in low-voltage circuit breakers, as copper is a better conductor and has a higher melting point.


3 pole circuit breakers?

3 pole circuit breakers are used for 3 phase lines


Can different rating circuit breakers have the same short circuit characteristics?

Yes, different amperage rating circuit breakers can have the same short circuit characteristics.


Where can I find circuit breakers?

Lowes and Home Depot carry circuit breakers as well as the wiring and box. Circuit Breakers come in several watts, so be sure you get what is appropriate for your living space.


How did early circuit breakers operate?

Circuit breakers operate. is the operetion of the break of the circuit. FORMULA : f(x) = m x+b


Is all circuit breakers automatically reset?

No, not all circuit breakers are automatically reset. Some circuit breakers need to be manually reset by flipping the switch back to the "on" position after they have tripped. Automatic reset circuit breakers are typically used in specific applications where it is important for the circuit to be quickly restored without human intervention.


What are the circuitrotectors?
