What are nhp circuit breakers?

NHP's range of circuit breakers features a complete range of quality products for the protection of an electrical installation against overcurrent’s and short circuits in industrial, commercial, and domestic applications.

What is an air circuit breaker?

Air Circuit Breakers (ACBs) serve as the primary protective devices in large switchboards or for directly powering significant equipment. They automatically disconnect the power supply in the event of faults or overloads, ideal for use in large buildings, manufacturing sites and projects with a high demand for low voltage power.

What are the different types of circuit breakers?

The range of circuit breakers includes air circuit breakers (ACBs), moulded case circuit breakers (MCCBs) and miniature circuit breakers (MCBs). Earth leakage relays detect ground faults and abnormal leakage currents. These protective measures ensure circuit integrity, prevent equipment failure, and enhance overall electrical system safety.

What is a miniature circuit breaker?

NHP's Miniature Circuit Breakers offer a broad range of current ratings from 0.5A to 125A; typically in 6kA and 10kA fault levels for domestic light commercial applications to commercial, industrial and mining solutions. Accessories include auxiliaries, shunt trip, pin terminals, busbar comb and captive locks.

What is a moulded case circuit breaker?

A proven history for performance and reliability to the market for over 3 decades. Moulded Case Circuit Breakers (MCCBs) function by automatically disconnecting the power supply when a short circuit fault is detected downstream or when the circuit becomes overloaded, surpassing the current capacity of the electrical cables.
