Lovato Molded Case Circuit Breakers
The dependable protection of electrical circuits against overcurrents, short circuits, and other faults demands trustworthy circuit breakers. For that, Lovato molded case circuit breakers are just the right devices. They have a good reputation in the industry for delivering reliable safety in all kinds of situations, from simple residential circuits to complex industrial environments, where safety and reliable power are essential. They come in a number of different current ratings, which makes them adaptable to all sorts of applications.
The molded case guarantees that the internal workings of the breaker will not be affected by anything in the environment, whether it be everyday dust or harmful moisture, or if the internal workings of the breaker would be affected by extreme temperatures. One of the best features of Lovato MCCBs is that you can adjust the trip settings on them. So you can really customize how you want them to work in your system. They’re particularly well-suited for environments with lots of electrical load variations, like factories or large commercial spaces.

What is a Circuit Breaker?
There are two different types of technologies that are commonly used in circuit breakers.
Magnetic Breakers
Magnetic Breakers are designed to react to short circuits or sharp spikes in voltage and current. The more current that passes through the breaker’s electromagnet, the stronger the magnet becomes. When the current exceeds the rating for that particular breaker, the magnetic force becomes strong enough that it will pull the contact back and disconnect it from the other contact, disconnecting power from the device.
Thermal Protection Breakers
Thermal Protection Breakers protect against a sustained overcurrent, or a higher current, for a longer period of time. Thermal protection uses a Bimetal strip that will bend the contacts away from each other to disconnect power. Thermal Magnetic Breakers are the most common type of circuit breakers. They combine magnetic technology to protect against short circuits or sharp spikes and thermal technology that protects against sustained overcurrent for a long period of time.
