Estonia: Circuit Breakers Market Report
This report presents a comprehensive overview of the Estonian circuit breakers market, the effect of recent high-impact world events on it, and a forecast for the market development in the
The solid-state breaker concept replaces the traditional moving parts of an electromechanical circuit breaker with semiconductors and advanced software algorithms that control the power and can interrupt extreme currents faster than ever before.
Solid-state technology guarantees an extremely fast interruption and clears a fault in a few microseconds. In comparison, a mechanical circuit breaker with the same frame size takes a few milliseconds. ABB's solid-state circuit breaker can detect and respond to a short circuit fault 100 times faster than a mechanical circuit breaker.
...ABB has invented a revolutionary solid-state circuit breaker concept that meets the highest demands of renewable energy solutions and industrial energy storage systems?
With advancements in the wide-bandgap semiconductor technology, solid-state circuit breaker variants are taking on a bigger market share. Wide-bandgap semiconductor switches have lower on-state losses and higher efficiency during normal operation compared to silicon-based semiconductors.
