AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The existing residual current operated circuit breakers have the same length of stationary contact at the outgoing end as at the incoming end, which results in a deficiency when carrying large currents.

Method used

The design of the outgoing stationary contact includes a connecting part, an extension part, and a mounting part. Its length is increased by extrusion molding, and a suitable cavity is set in the contact box. The extension part is located between the connecting part and the mounting part. The outgoing stationary contact and the incoming stationary contact are mirror images of each other in the vertical direction.

Benefits of technology

This effectively increases the length of the stationary contact at the outgoing end, enabling large current to pass through, improving the current carrying capacity of the circuit breaker, and ensuring the effective guidance and extinguishing of the electric arc.
