Air Circuit Breaker Symbol

Circuit breakers symbols for use in electrical pneumatic and hydraulic schematic diagrams.

Air circuit breaker symbol.

Its primary function is to interrupt current flow after a fault is detected. Such kind of breakers is used in three phase systems in industries. This symbol represents circuit breaker with three poles. Unlike a fuse which operates once and then must be replaced a circuit breaker can be reset either manually or automatically to resume.

It connects three phases whenever there is an overload or short circuit in any phase the circuit breaker trips all three phases simultaneously. Available in svg png jpg dxf dwg formats. Plain break type air break circuit breaker. It operates in air where air blast as an arc quenching medium at atmospheric pressure to protect the connected electric circuits.

The main points of contacts are made in the shape of two horns. A circuit breaker is an automatically operated electrical switch designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by excess current from an overload or short circuit its basic function is to interrupt current flow after a fault is detected. An air circuit breaker also known as an air blast circuit breaker or acb is an automatically operated electrical switch that uses air to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by excess current from an overload or short circuit.
