Circuit breakers are protective electrical switches that automatically shut off a power supply when they detect an overload of power or a short circuit. These critical units help prevent and limit electrical damage to circuits. There are many different types of circuit breakers based on application and specifications.

At Control Design Supply, we proudly offer a wide selection of circuit breakers for use in any trade. No matter your application, our team can find the best circuit breaker for your equipment and circuits. Contact us today for more information or to begin your order.
 

What are Industrial Circuit Breakers?

At their core, circuit breakers are current protection devices. Like fuses, they are highly sensitive to electrical currents, and if they detect an overloaded circuit, they interrupt the circuit as a protective measure. However, unlike fuses, circuit breakers are typically undamaged and can be reset and reused after tripping.

While there are various types of circuit breakers, they all have similar core components for operation: tripping mechanisms, operating mechanisms, frames, arc chutes, and contacts. These critical elements help circuit breakers perform properly and maintain functionality after tripping.
