MCB can be used for only over current triping.
MCCB can be used for over current and earth fault(in built)
triping.

Answer / petrit hajrizi

Can we use MCCB to protect the cable for termal and short
cicuit.

Answer / shankar rao

MCB- is genarally used for lighting, it is fixed Rating
like: 2A, 6A, 10A,16A,20A,32A,63A. it will trip at any time
current carrying more then its rating.BUT MCCB- is genaraaly
using for Power sources, it is working range of current.
like: 4 -6A, 6-10A, 10-16A. it will use for Varies settings
have to set.

Answer / sennapparajan

And also difference in short circuit current carrying
capacity.MCB having max up to 25kA. MCCB having up to 50KA.

Answer / pgr ram

MCbs can withstand fault current upto 9KA. whereas MCCBs
can withstand high fault current upto 100ka. Hence MCCBs
are recommended to install at high current distribution
systems. Whereas MCBS are used for feeder distribution.

MCCB cost very high when compared to MCB

Answer / abracadabra

the difference between mcb and mccb is the difference of
adjusting tripping characteristics. this adjustment is
possible in mccb. the higher current making and breaking
capacity is one of the difference but the main reason is
the tripping char adjustment.

Answer / timbadiya dixit

MCB is use only for over Load protection and MCCB is use to
over load and under load protection And MCCB is one types
of circuit Brecker.

Can earth resistance be measured without connecting the earth electrode? and should earthing connections be disconnected What is the effect of connecting two cables of different sizes in parallel with supply? Thanks in Advance. I am intrested to get in touch with some tecnocrats/engineers,my mail i.d is : hiremathvijay@rediffmail.com

HELLO EVERYONE, I RECENTLY HAVE FOUND ONE PROBLEM, I WAS TAKING NO LOAD TRIAL OF AN HT MOTOR 920 MOTOR , 1440 RPM , 6.6 KV, WITH AUTO TRANSFORMER. AT 450 V, LOAD WAS 40 AMP AND SPEED WAS 250 RPM. BUT AS WE INCREASE VOLTAGE FROM 450 TO 480V, LOAD BECOME 41 AND SPEED REDUCED TO SOME RPM . SO WHICH PHENOMENON ACTED HERE FOR REDUCING SPEED.?? AND IS IT HAPPENING ALWAYS OR IT IS RARE? I ALSO HAVE FACED SUCH PROBLEM WITH FEW LT MOTOR ALSO.
