  2. Circuit breaker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_breaker

    Miniature circuit breaker (MCB)—rated current up to 125 A. Trip characteristics normally not adjustable. Thermal or thermal-magnetic operation. Breakers illustrated above are in this category. Molded Case Circuit Breaker (MCCB)—rated current up to 1,600 A. Thermal or thermal-magnetic operation. Trip current may be adjustable in higher-rated ...

  3. Internal resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_resistance

    When the power source delivers current, the measured voltage output is lower than the no-load voltage; the difference is the voltage drop (the product of current and resistance) caused by the internal resistance. The concept of internal resistance applies to all kinds of electrical sources and is useful for analyzing many types of circuits.

  4. Output impedance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Output_impedance

    is the total current supplied by the battery. Internal resistance varies with the age of a battery, but for most commercial batteries the internal resistance is on the order of 1 ohm. When there is a current through a cell, the measured e.m.f. is lower than when there is no current delivered by the cell. The reason for this is that part of the ...

  5. Residual-current device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residual-current_device

    A residual-current device (RCD), residual-current circuit breaker (RCCB) or ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) [a] is an electrical safety device that interrupts an electrical circuit when the current passing through a conductor is not equal and opposite in both directions, therefore indicating leakage current to ground or current flowing to another powered conductor.

  6. Breaking capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breaking_capacity

    The prospective short-circuit current that can occur under short circuit conditions should not exceed the rated breaking capacity of the apparatus, otherwise breaking of the current cannot be guaranteed. The current breaking capacity corresponds to a certain voltage, so an electrical apparatus may have more than one breaking capacity current ...

  7. Ohm's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohm's_law

    Ohm's law, in the form above, is an extremely useful equation in the field of electrical/electronic engineering because it describes how voltage, current and resistance are interrelated on a "macroscopic" level, that is, commonly, as circuit elements in an electrical circuit.

  8. Current source - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_source

    Thus, the load current is constant (neglecting the output resistance of the transistor due to the Early effect) and the circuit operates as a constant current source. As long as the temperature remains constant (or doesn't vary much), the load current will be independent of the supply voltage, R1 and the transistor's gain.

  9. Current limiting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_limiting

    Under a short circuit, where the output voltage has reduced to zero, the current is typically limited to a small fraction of the maximum current. Power dissipation vs. load resistance for linear voltage regulators with different overload handling. Here V in = 12 V, V OC = 10 V, I max = 1 A, I SC =0.17 A.
