	Circuit breaker simulator - Patent 5168261
		The circuit breaker simulator of claims 4 or 5 wherein said close circuit simulating means includes a first relay and a second relay, each of said relays having a coil and a plurality of contacts.
		When the simulator is attached, the circuit breaker 6 is electrically isolated from the control panel, and the control function is redirected from the circuit breaker 6 to the breaker simulator 18.
		An assembly for connecting the circuit breaker simulator to the control panel is provided which includes test cable 20 attached to the face of breaker simulator 18, test plug 22, and test receptacle 24 mounted on the front of control panel 16 and adapted to receive test plug 22.

	Power-Sensing Circuit Breaker Breaks New Ground - Maxim/Dallas
		While current-sensing circuit breakers work well for constant DC or RMS supply voltages, power sensing is safer for a variable supply voltage such as the battery in a notebook computer.
		A basic power sensor includes a current sensor that measures current and produces a proportional voltage, which is multiplied by the load voltage to obtain a voltage output proportional to load power.
		The operation of an electromagnetic circuit breaker is similar to that of a bimetallic-strip breaker, except that the mechanical actuation is produced by an electromagnet instead of heat.

	Mike Holt's Code Forum: Power Circuit Breaker Trip Unit Replacement
		Control Power - the trip unit is powered by the breaker CT's; external power is not required to trip the breaker.
		Power is needed to operate the relay and to trip the breaker.
		All of the trip parameters are set within the capabilities of the breaker, long time, short time, instantaneous, etc. It is possible that using an external means to trip the breaker may not assure that the breaker itself would be protected.

	Molded Case Circuit Breakers: used, reconditioned and new. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		The basic design purpose of molded case circuit breakers is to protect the conductors connected to the output of the breakers from damaged due to overloading or due to high fault currents during a short circuit.
		A circuit breaker is a switch that automatically interrupts the flow of electrical current when the rated current is exceeded due to an electrical overload or fault.
		Molded case circuit breakers are not intended to be maintained or repaired in the same manner as air circuit breakers or power circuit breakers.

	Utility Automation & Engineering T&D - New analysis finds circuit breaker market future bright
		The HV power circuit breaker segment is considered mature and capital intensive with only a handful of companies participating in it successfully, says the new analysis.
		This, however, is expected to improve in response to Government regulations dictating the use of specific circuit breakers in certain sub-segments, replacements due to ageing circuit breakers, and increased reliability of HV circuit breakers.
		Breaker manufacturers need to work with utilities and government bodies to develop incentives for the acceptance and implementation of nascent technologies.

	Products - Power Distribution Centers
		Power Distribution Center, or PDC, is Carling's term for a standard or custom power distribution panel or enclosure that's factory wired and contains overcurrent and short circuit protection devices.
		It may also contain auxiliary devices such as surge suppressors, ground fault circuit interrupters, power receptacles, etc. A PDC is usually supplied by the main feeder and then divides the power into smaller branch circuits.
		A PDC provides the required circuit control and overcurrent protection needed to all the circuits and power consuming loads connected to it.

	Electric power engineering - Circuit breaker delay coordination
		I'm accustomed to spec'ing circuit breakers so that the downstream breakers have a shorter delay than the upstream (main) breakers.
		I pretty much have to use a breaker with the longest available delay for that load, so I won't be able to make the main breaker delay curve any longer.
		The branch breaker can be a MCCB with a thermal-magnetic trip unit, possible with an adjustable magnetic trip (usually between 5 and 10 times pug rating).

	Electronic Circuit Breaker Reduces Power Loss
		The select pin can be stepped dynamically, allowing a higher circuit breaker threshold at startup and a lower threshold after the supply current has settled.
		The circuit breaker also provides dual-level and dual-response time functions for overcurrent protection by integrating a slow and a fast comparator.
		This further enhances the circuit breaker performance by differentiating between slight overcurrent faults or catastrophic short-circuit conditions.

		NEW YORK -- Investors in power companies who were sipping champagne after President Bush unveiled his national energy strategy got a bad case of the hiccups when Democrats regained control of the Senate.
		During that crisis, power bills quickly tripled, costs were passed directly to electricity consumers and even the most conservative local Republican leaders called for an end to the open market and a cap on wholesale electricity prices.
		There still will be fierce battles over efforts to relax power plant emissions -- a Bush proposal that would benefit coal burners -- and proposals to expand the nation's electricity and natural gas infrastructure.
