[0002] The main task of low-voltage circuit breaker is to protect the circuit system when the circuit has a short-circuit fault, which is mainly composed of a shell, a static contact, a moving contact, an arc extinguishing chamber and an operating mechanism. When the circuit has a short-circuit fault, the circuit breaker releases the lock to separate the static contact and the moving contact, and then generates an arc between the static contact and the moving contact. The arc enters the arc extinguishing chamber under the action of the magnetic field and is cut into multiple short arcs by the arc extinguishing chamber grid. Each short arc has a near-pole voltage drop, and the arc voltage rises rapidly. The more the number of grid pieces, the more the number of short arcs formed, and the higher the arc voltage. The increase of arc voltage can rapidly reduce the arc current, and ultimately extinguish the arc to cut off the fault circuit. Therefore, it is particularly important to set as many arc extinguishing grids as possible in the limited space of the circuit breaker and set an arc guide plate to make each grid fully utilized.
