FAQ

CHYT Circuit breakers function as a safety mechanism to safeguard the electrical system of your home from overloading by automatically shutting off the power flow.

If a circuit breaker exhibits any of the following symptoms, it may be considered as faulty or bad: emitting a burning odor, feeling hot to the touch, frequently tripping, showing signs of wear and tear, visibly damaged, unable to remain reset, experiencing power surges, or overloaded circuits.

The commonly used circuit breaker in residential and commercial electrical systems, also known as Miniature Circuit Breaker (MCB), has an operational lifespan of up to 10,000 uses.

If the circuit breaker continually trips and cannot be reset, it is likely due to a short circuit. A short circuit occurs when a live wire carrying electrical current makes contact with a neutral wire. In this instance, the tripped circuit breaker serves as a safety feature and indicates that the breaker is functioning correctly.

MCB of Type C is appropriate for applications in homes and residential buildings.
