Abstract

While the speed of operation of conventional circuit breakers for equipment (CBE) is suitable for the majority of modern day equipment applications, ultra-sensitive solidstate circuitry typically found in telecom power distribution applications will often require faster switching protection under overcurrent conditions than electromechanical CBEs can achieve.
