Example Embodiment

[0053] figure 1 Represents the functional block of the circuit breaker LS. The circuit breaker LS is used in a circuit or circuit system, for example, for a three-phase system including wires L1, L2, L3, and N. These wires are connected to the circuit breaker LS and their current flows through the open circuit 器LS. A sensing device IM is provided in the circuit breaker LS, which determines the circuit parameters, such as current or / and voltage or / and frequency.

[0054] The sensing device IM is connected to the electronic triggering device ETU, which learns the situation of exceeding the safety parameters. The safety parameter can be a current limit value or / and a current-time-limit value or / and a voltage limit value or / and a mathematical combination thereof.

[0055] The electronic trigger device ETU is connected to the contact device SCH, which is used to break the current of the circuit or circuit system.

[0056] If the electronic trigger device ETU recognizes a parameter, such ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a circuit breaker (LS) for interrupting an electric circuit if settable protective parameters are exceeded. The circuit breaker includes an electronic trip unit (ETU), in which the set protective parameters are stored, with a movable sealing pane (3), which covers at least part of the circuit breaker (LS). The invention is characterized in that the circuit breaker (LS) further includes a sensor (5, 7) with which a first state of the sealing pane (3) can be ascertained; and, the electronic trip unit (ETU) is designed such that changes to the protective parameters are accepted by the electronic trip unit (ETU) only in the first state of the sealing pane (3).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a circuit breaker according to the preamble of patent claim 1 and a method for a circuit breaker according to the preamble of patent claim 17 . Background technique [0002] A circuit breaker is a protective device that functions like an insurance device. A circuit breaker, also known as a trigger, monitors the current flowing through it via a conductor and switches off when a safety parameter, such as a current limit or a current-time limit, ie a value of current that exists for a certain time period, is exceeded Current or energy flow to a point of consumption or to a user. The disconnection takes place, for example, by opening the contacts of a circuit breaker. [0003] Especially for low-voltage circuits or grids, there are different types of circuit breakers depending on the amount of current specified in the circuit. Circuit breakers in the sense of the present invention are in particular those switches used in low-vol...
