With regards to what specific application? Please give details of what you have and why you need to decide which way to go.What is the main different between Electrically vs. Manually operated circuit breakers and their applications? Thanks,
With regards to what specific application? Please give details of what you have and why you need to decide which way to go.
Or is this a homework question?
The only time I have ever run across motor operated breakers was for controlling medium voltage motors. They were using them like motor starters.
I'm working on a specifications for switchboard (1600A @ 480/277V) and came cross E/O & M/O molded case circuit breaker for main and branch feeders. This job is for a warehouse and I'm more leaning toward the M/O since there is no shunt trip required for this specific project unless the E/O has more benefits that would be used in the future for any reason
There may be a relation between existing fault level at the breaker and the choice between MO and EO.Need to be checked up.
You should be afraid to ask, now we will launch into another 100+ post thread....I am almost afraid to ask, but just why would the fault level matter any? nd just what fault level are you referring to?
