So what is the definition of L.V C.

- A common rule of thumb is that anything below 1000 volts is considered low voltage. Factories that use
automation can use multiple voltages. Dividing the electrical use into supply and controls aids in
understanding the usage. A low voltage circuit breaker is a type of electromechanical switch that breaks
the circuit manually or automatically under abnormal conditions such as over current, over voltage, and
short circuit.

Why it is called L.V C.B?

- Low voltage is a designation that indicates that something uses a lower stream of power than a traditional
wall socket provides. Usually this means they come with some sort of a transformer or step-down device
that reduces the voltage to a much lower level, which in turn means it's much safer to use.

What is the advantage and disadvantage of L.V C.B?

advantage

- using low voltage electrical devices lowers costs and increases safety. Low voltage electrical supply also
improves energy efficiency. Most sources of renewable energy, including solar, hydro, and wind all provide
low direct current power.

Disadvantage

- A low voltage circuit breaker is very sensitive to the short circuit. A short circuit is one kind of loop that
produces high current flow. Generally, it can be fatal as well as destroy all other electrical instruments.

Types of L.V C.B

- Miniature Circuit Breaker is a safety accessory with an electro-mechanical mechanism of action. MCB is an
automatic switch that opens when excessive current flows through the circuit. It can be reclosed without
any manual replacement.
- They can be used in almost any environment, from residential applications to industrial or commercial
systems. MCCBs protect against short circuits, ground faults, and thermal overloads using thermomagnetic
and electromagnetic mechanisms to trip the breaker and interrupt the flow.
- Air circuit breaker is a circuit breaker for the purpose of protecting low voltage circuit, mainly for
energizing and cutting off high current. It is used as the master of a factory and building, and as a main
circuit breaker of a ship, and it is possible to attach various accessories according to the purpose
- What does an earth leakage circuit breaker do?
The earth leakage circuit breakers are used in applications to prevent electrical shock and electrical fires
that are caused by a short circuit or overload in the control panel with an automatic shut off when leakage
is detected
- A residual-current device, residual-current circuit breaker or ground fault circuit interrupter is an electrical
safety device that quickly breaks an electrical circuit with leakage current to ground. It is to protect
equipment and to reduce the risk of serious harm from an ongoing electric shock.
- A motor protection circuit breaker, or MPCB, is an electromechanical device that performs three important
functions upstream of an electric motor: isolation, motor protection against overload and short circuit,
control of the motor (on/off)
