how braking & making capacity of circuit breaker are calculated?..

Answer / Pankaj Gautam

The breaking capacity of a circuit breaker is typically determined by the maximum current it can handle without tripping or melting. This is usually calculated based on the insulation level, contacts, and mechanical design of the circuit breaker. The making capacity is calculated based on the current required to make the contact after it has been opened.
