[0002] A circuit breaker is a switch device that can close, carry and disconnect current under normal circuit conditions and can close, carry and disconnect current under abnormal circuit conditions within a specified time. Circuit breakers are divided into high-voltage circuit breakers and low-voltage circuit breakers according to their scope of use. The boundary between high and low voltage is relatively vague. Generally, those above 3kV are called high-voltage electrical appliances. Circuit breakers can be used to distribute electrical energy, start asynchronous motors infrequently, and protect power lines and motors. When they have serious overloads or short circuits and undervoltage faults, they can automatically cut off the circuit. Its function is equivalent to the combination of fuse switches and over-underheating relays. Moreover, it is generally not necessary to change parts after breaking the fault current.

[0003] Today's circuit breakers require the use of tools for quick connection. If they are pulled out while energized (power is still closed), large sparks will occur, burning the parts at the connection and causing accidents.
