Consider there were no circuit breaker trips, then wouldn’t house fires be a common issue? The circuit breaker usually trips when there is too much electricity flows through it or when it cannot handle the excess current load. This implies that the flow of electricity is cut off to keep circuits from overheating or causing more damage. Therefore, it is important that we pay special attention to the electrical circuit breakers including miniature circuit breakers as well. Even though the tripping of circuit breakers ensures safety, it can get quite annoying to constantly experience them and getting the power back on repeatedly. Thus, let us look at the three main reasons that cause circuit breakers to trip: Circuit Overloads:   An overload is the primary reasons behind the tripping of electrical circuit breakers constantly. This occurs when we want a particular circuit (example, miniature circuit breaker) to provide more electricity than its actual capacity. This leads to o...

Although there is a plethora of electrical switches available, but the most uncommon among them are changeover switches and push-button switch. They aren’t uncommon because they are of less usage, they are uncommon because we are unaware of the importance these devices hold in the smooth functioning of electrical current. A push button switch is made of a simple electric switch mechanism which controls portions of a machine or a process. The buttons are typically made of hard material such as plastic or metal. Its surface is usually shaped to accommodate the human finger or hand, so that the electronic switch can be pushed or de-pressed with ease. These switches are also known as a biased switch or a momentary switch where the user pushes for turning it on and push off to turn it down. This type of mechanism is also known as a push-to-make or push-to-break mechanism. The ones with the push-to-make mechanism are a type of push-button switch that operates by the switch making contac...
