At present, the most commonly used method for circuit breakers is to shunt the current of the overload protection device, which reduces the impact on the temperature rise of the circuit breaker by reducing the heating of the double gold element. However, the biggest impact of the current shunt on the overload protection device is the short delay. The calibration time is too long and relatively discrete, which greatly reduces the production efficiency and pass rate of the product.
