Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the function of circuit breakers in power systems?
  • Step 1: Understand that circuit breakers are safety devices used in electrical systems.
  • Step 2: Know that they monitor the flow of electricity in a circuit.
  • Step 3: Learn that if the electricity flow is too high (overload) or if there is a fault (short circuit), the circuit breaker will act.
  • Step 4: Realize that the circuit breaker interrupts the flow of electricity to prevent damage to the circuit and connected devices.
  • Step 5: Remember that this interruption helps to keep people and equipment safe from electrical hazards.
