Power Loss

The power loss of MCB’s is closely controlled by the standards and is calculated on the basis of the voltage drop across the main terminals measured at rated

current. The power loss of our circuit breakers is very much lower than that required by the British Standard, so in consequences run cooler and are less affected

when mounted together.

The table below gives the watts loss per pole at rated current.

For use with DC

Because of their quick make and break design and excellent arc quenching

capabilities, our circuit breakers are suitable for DC applications.

The following parameters must be considered:

1. System voltage:

Determined by the number of poles connected in series (see

Table 14

).

2. Short circuit current:

(See

Table 14

).

3. Tripping Characteristics:

If the thermal trip remains unchanged the magnetic trip will become less

sensitive requiring derating by √2 the ac value (See

Table 14

).
