1. Short Circuit Protection: When a short circuit occurs, the MCB's electromagnetic trip mechanism instantly disconnects the circuit by opening its contacts. This prevents excessive current flow that could cause damage to equipment or fire hazards.
2. Overload Protection: The MCB's thermal trip mechanism gradually responds to increasing current overloads. As the current exceeds the rated value for the MCB, the bimetallic strip inside the thermal trip mechanism heats up, causing it to bend and disconnect the circuit. This protects the circuit from overheating and potential damage caused by sustained overcurrent conditions.
