1、 What is the difference between an air switch and a circuit breaker

1. The circuit breaker is equipped with an arc suppression device that can trip on its own, thus breaking the current of resistance and obstacles; The air switch is not equipped with arc suppression equipment, so it cannot be used to disconnect resistance and obstacle currents.

2. In terms of operation, the circuit breaker can be electrically controlled far apart; The air switches are mostly manually controlled.

2. In terms of operation, the circuit breaker can be electrically controlled far apart; The air switches are mostly manually controlled.

3. The interface insulation level of circuit breakers is relatively low, so they are usually used to handle resistance and barrier currents; The ability to overvoltage is weak, and the insulation level of the interface of the air switch is high, usually dealing with voltage, and cannot handle resistance and obstacle currents.

4. The circuit breaker can protect the current circuit and motor, and disconnect the obstacle current; The air switch is usually used for isolation and operates without resistance.

2、 What is a circuit breaker

A circuit breaker refers to the installation of a switch that can close, withstand, and cut off the current under normal circuit conditions, and can also close, withstand, and cut off the current under abnormal circuit conditions within a limited time. Circuit breakers are divided into two types based on their usage scope: high voltage and low voltage. The distinction between high and low voltage boundaries is relatively unclear, and usually high-voltage electrical appliances are those above 3kV.
