MCB is a gear where MCCB is a switchgear. MCCB may be said to be best if chose because, with an MCCB you get a current sensing relay for auto tripping during a fault.

MCB is Simply a Mechanical Switch which makes or breakes the circuit by hand. In other words MCCB is a current sensing device which detects the abnormality in the circuit and trips the circuit. Today many of them are using MCCB only. And further As for as fault concern it is better to select MCCB

Answer / sahedul islam sagor
MCCB tripping Capacity is low when MCB. We know a machine starting current is high but its running current is normal if we used MCB it will trip instant with starting current but if we use MCCB it will take a little time for running machine.
