Thermal-Magnetic Protection Advantage

The thermal-magnetic trip mechanism provides dual protection against overloads and short circuits. The thermal element responds to sustained overloads by heating a bimetallic strip that trips the breaker, while the magnetic element provides instantaneous protection against short circuits and ground faults. This proven technology ensures reliable protection for both normal overload conditions and dangerous fault situations, making it the preferred choice for residential and commercial electrical protection.
