Abstract:

The short circuit test is a conventional type test for miniature circuit breakers.GB/T 10963.1—2005 specifies the relevant requirements of test parameters (test voltage,test current,power factor,closing phase angle,etc.) in detail.However,the influence of power factor and closing phase angle on short circuit test is not clear,which brings some troubles to testers.In this paper,the short circuit current mathematical expression is taken as a starting point,combined with the common short circuit test cases,from the theoretical analysis and test results analysis,the influence of power factor and closing phase angle on the miniature circuit breaker short-circuit test is analyzed,to deepen the understanding of circuit breaker short-circuit test.

Key words: miniature circuit breaker(MCB), short circuit current, power factor, closing phase angle
