Based on the Tripping Characteristics, MCB are available in “B”, “C” and “D” curve to suit different types of applications.
“B” Curve for protection of electrical circuits with equipment that does not cause surge current (lighting and distribution circuits) Short circuit release is set to (3-5) In.
“C” Curve for protection of electrical circuits with equipment that cause surge current (inductive loads and motor circuits) Short circuit release is set to (5-10) In.
“D” Curve for protection of electrical circuits with cause high inrush current, typically 12-15 times the thermal rated current (transforms, x-ray machines etc,) Short circuit release is set to (10-20) In.
ETEK Electrical has advanced production management system and production process.200 employees,4 production workshops,6 automatic production lines more than 60 sets of test and detection equipment.
The annual production capacity is as follows:15 million miniature circuit breakers,1 million residual current circuit breaker,150 thousand moulded case circuit breakers,20 thousand frame circuit breakers,500 thousand AC contactors,and 1 million button indicator lights.
A complete set of parts testing standard and supplier managementstan dard has been developed.In the manufacturing process , there is parts inspection , process inspection. Verification inspection Parts inspection includes welding strength , welding size and appearance inspection.
Process inspection includes mechanical operation test , contact terminal parameter test and so on Verification inspection includes long delay characteristic inspection other characteristic inspection , appearance inspection and packaging inspection.
ETEK has made a great deal of investment in thedevelopment of new products and the construction of R & D team. Now , the company has independent R & D labs 3 senior R & D engineers and 5 professional technicians and isalso equipped with advanced testing equipment.
Most of the products are supportedCCC certificate and international certificates certified by TUV Intertek such as CB SEMKO , CE INMETRO and SAA. In order to reduce the damage during the transportation our products have pallet packaging rich industry experience.
