The Molded Case Circuit Breaker, also known as the Moulded Case Circuit Breaker or simply MCCB, is a crucial component in electrical systems, serving as a vital safeguard against overloads and short circuits. Its robust construction and versatile functionality make it a staple in both industrial and domestic electrical installations.
The MCCB's molded case, typically made of thermally stable plastic, provides a protective shell that not only shields the internal mechanisms from environmental contaminants but also acts as an insulator, enhancing safety. Inside this case, the circuit breaker houses its main contacts, trip mechanism, and arc-extinguishing devices.
