Types of Circuit Breaker

There are multiple ways of classification of circuit breakers. Circuit breakers can be classified into different types based on the medium used for arc extinction. Different media,

air-break-circuit-breaker-explained

Air Break Circuit Breaker

The air break circuit breaker (commonly referred to as an Air Circuit Breaker or ACB) is designed to initiate and extinguish arcs in relatively still

zero-sequence-current-explained

Zero Sequence Current

Definition: An unbalanced current flows during an earth fault in an electrical circuit. This current is known as the zero sequence current or the DC component

oil circuit-breaker-explained

Oil Circuit Breaker

An oil circuit breaker is a type of circuit breaker that uses oil as a dielectric or insulating medium to extinguish the electrical arc. The

pin-insulator-explained

Pin Insulator

The pin insulator is used for power distribution for voltages up to 33kV. It is mounted on the cross arm of a supporting tower. The

transposition-of-conductors-explained

Transposition of Conductors

Definition: The transposition process involves physically rotating the conductors so that each conductor takes up the next position in a regular sequence. This equalizes the

Suspension Insulator

What is a Suspension Type Insulator? The main function of a suspension insulator is to separate the line conductors and support them electrically. It comprises

Construction of Underground Cables

Underground Cables Construction

Underground cables comprise one or more conductors covered with insulation and then protected with a cover. The right cable type is crucial for a reliable
