The tripping characteristics of the disconnecting devices of circuit breakers depend on the type of connected load.

There are several tripping characteristics of circuit breakers (А, В, С, D, К, Z).

Circuit breakers with characteristic type A designed to open circuits with a long length of electrical wiring and to protect semiconductor devices.

Characteristics of circuit breakers
Rice. 1. Tripping characteristic, type A

Circuit breakers with characteristic type B it is recommended to use for lighting networks of general purpose.

Characteristics of circuit breakers
Rice. 2. Tripping characteristic, type B

Circuit breakers with tripping characteristic type C are used to open lighting circuits and installations with moderate starting currents (motors and transformers).

At the same time, for circuit breakers with characteristic type C the overload capacity of the magnetic circuit breaker is twice that of circuit breakers with characteristic type B.

Characteristics of circuit breakers
Rice. 3. Tripping characteristic, type C

In circuits with active-inductive loads, as well as for the protection of electric motors with high starting currents, it is proposed to use circuit breakers with a characteristic type D.

Characteristics of circuit breakers
Rice. 4. Tripping characteristic type D

To connect an inductive load, it is recommended to use circuit breakers with a characteristic type K.

Characteristics of circuit breakers
Rice. 5. Tripping characteristic type K

If electronic devices are used as a load, it is better to connect them through circuit breakers with a characteristic type Z.

Traffic noise delays the growth of chicks 06.05.2024

The sounds that surround us in modern cities are becoming increasingly piercing. However, few people think about how this noise affects the animal world, especially such delicate creatures as chicks that have not yet hatched from their eggs. Recent research is shedding light on this issue, indicating serious consequences for their development and survival. Scientists have found that exposure of zebra diamondback chicks to traffic noise can cause serious disruption to their development. Experiments have shown that noise pollution can significantly delay their hatching, and those chicks that do emerge face a number of health-promoting problems. The researchers also found that the negative effects of noise pollution extend into the adult birds. Reduced chances of reproduction and decreased fertility indicate the long-term effects that traffic noise has on wildlife. The study results highlight the need ... >>

A New Way to Control and Manipulate Optical Signals 05.05.2024

The modern world of science and technology is developing rapidly, and every day new methods and technologies appear that open up new prospects for us in various fields. One such innovation is the development by German scientists of a new way to control optical signals, which could lead to significant progress in the field of photonics. Recent research has allowed German scientists to create a tunable waveplate inside a fused silica waveguide. This method, based on the use of a liquid crystal layer, allows one to effectively change the polarization of light passing through a waveguide. This technological breakthrough opens up new prospects for the development of compact and efficient photonic devices capable of processing large volumes of data. The electro-optical control of polarization provided by the new method could provide the basis for a new class of integrated photonic devices. This opens up great opportunities for ... >>

Disney releases its own Android smartphones 09.02.2012

The Walt Disney Company, as part of a partnership agreement with mobile operator NTT DoCoMo, has released two new Android smartphones for its fans. The phones are part of a new line that will be sold under the "Disney Mobile on DoCoMo" brand. The first of the two models (F-08D) will be on sale in Japan at the end of February, while the second (P-05D) will be available only in March.

Both devices will receive thematic drawings on the case, a Disney interface, as well as cartoon screensavers and icons. According to the company, both models will be protected from water and dust. The F-08D features a 4,3-inch OLED display, a 4430GHz dual-core TI OMAP 1,2 processor, and dual cameras. The back panel will feature playful silhouettes of Mickey and Minnie Mouse. The phone will come with a stylized docking station. As for the other member of the line, it will also get a 4,3-inch display, but the dual-core OMAP 4430 processor will be clocked at 1 GHz. As a bonus, the company offers the consumer several interchangeable panels that will come with the phone.

Both smartphones will have Disney-exclusive content: themed puzzles, apps, music games and live wallpapers. Despite the fact that phones can claim to be in fairly high demand, so far only residents of Japan will be able to purchase them.
