Study on the instantaneous protection reliability of low voltage circuit breakers

Abstract: This paper outlines the significance of enhancing the instantaneous protection reliability of low voltage circuit breakers and describes their main failure modes. The instantaneous failure mechanism of low voltage circuit breakers was analyzed so that measures to improve instantaneous protection reliability can be determined. Furthermore, the theory of the instantaneous characteristics calibration device for low voltage circuit breakers and the method of eliminating the non-periodic component of test current are given in detail. Finally, the test results are presented.

Key words: Low voltage circuit breakers, Instantaneous protection reliability, Non-periodic component of current, Phase selective closing
