The Difference Between Surge Protector and Miniature Circuit Breaker

1. Surge protector

Surge protector, also known as lightning protector, is a protection device designed to prevent various electronic equipment, instruments, and communication lines from being subjected to surge shocks (such as lightning strikes). When the electrical circuit or communication line suddenly generates a peak current or voltage due to external interference, the lightning protection surge protector can conduct and shun the current in a very short period of time, thereby avoiding the damage of the surge to other equipment in the circuit. The discharge tube in the circuit is a kind of surge protector. Click here for surge protection supplier and get more information.

2. Miniature circuit breaker

A circuit breaker is a mechanical switching device that can make, carry and break current under normal circuit conditions. The miniature scb breakers can also make, carry and break current for a certain period of time under specified abnormal circuit conditions.

Miniature circuit breakers are the most widely used terminal protection appliances in building electrical terminal distribution devices. It is used for short circuit, overload and overvoltage protection of single-phase and three-phase below 125A.

3. The difference between surge protector and circuit breaker

The miniature circuit breaker is mainly to prevent the occurrence of relatively large current in the circuit. When the current exceeds the rated current, it starts to cut off the circuit to protect the electrical equipment.

The lightning protection surge protector civers many varieties, including cable TV lightning surge protector, antenna surge protector and lightning proof surge protector, etc. The lightning protection surge protector mainly prevents the sudden high voltage in the circuit. When the sudden high voltage appears, the surge protector behaves as a short circuit and releases the excessive voltage to the ground, thus protecting oir electrical equipment.
