What are the differents between Breaker & Contactor?
Answer Posted / iamdon
Basic difference between circuit breaker and contractor is
that
A circuit breaker can make,break and carry current in all
conditions i.e normal,overload and short circuit where as a
contractor can make,break and carry only in normal and
overloaded condition not in short circuit condition.
Also, Contractor are always backup by HRC fuse where as
there is no need of any backup in circuit breaker.
The frequency of operation of contractor is more than the
Circuit breaker
