1. Application: For protecting cables and equipments against overload and short circuit.
2. General rules for choosing MCB.
a. Technical data of the network at the point considered:
The earthing systems,short-circuit current at the circuit breaker installtion point, which must always be less
than the breaking capacity of this device, network normal voltage.
b. There are 3 curve characteristics for magnetic operation:
B curve (3-5 In) protection and control of the circuits against length cables in TN and IT systems.
C curve (5-10 In) protection and control of the circuits against overloads and short-circuits;protection for
resistive and inductive loads with low inrush current.
D curve (10-20In) protection and control of the circuits against overloads and short-circuits.
