Asymmetrical breaking current: It is the rms value of the total current comprising the a.c and d.c components of the current in the pole at the instant of contact separation.
As per the key statistics data of IEA With electricity consumption reached to 1,164 TWh in the country till November 2019, India ranked third among the top ten electricity consuming countries across the globe.
Class B trip curve: The MCB with class B trip characteristics trips instantaneously when the current flowing through it reaches between 3 to 5 times rated current. These MCBs are suitable for cable protection. Hence, For 16 A current Type B MCB disconnect fault at 3*16 = 48 A to 5*16 = 80 A.
