Type II: Non-Cyclic Blade Terminal Circuit Breakers

Maxi Style Metal Circuit Breakers

Unlike the auto reset design, type II circuit breakers have an additional resistive component built into them which raises the ambient temperature within the circuit protector. This limits the number of cycles (less than 10) by not allowing the composite alloy to cool and reset the circuit. The circuit remains open with less than 1.0 Amp current flow as long as the voltage is applied.

  • Designed with an additional resistive component, this style breaker remains open as long as the power is available or until the load is removed
