ABSTRACT:
An electric circuit breaker includes thermal magnetic trip means for causing circuit interruption upon the occurrence of overload and minor short-circuit conditions, and also provides current limiting action under major short-circuit conditions by providing two pairs of engageable contacts, wherein one contact of each pair is movable to a circuit interrupting position by the circuit breaker operating mechanism and the other contact of each pair is magnetically attracted to a circuit interrupting position in response to short-circuit currents exceeding a predetermined magnitude.
