Circuit Breaker
An Arc fault circuit breaker is an automatically operated electrical switch designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by excess current, typically resulting from an overload or short circuit. A circuit breaker could be used either in a commercial or residential environment depending on the electrical current it can handle.
Industrial circuit breakers are used in warehouses, factories, or any location with a large electrical distribution.
Residential circuit breakers guard the home electrical system from a fire caused by an electrical fault.
