ABSTRACT:
An electric circuit breaker including a current sensor composed of a Hall generator for detecting current overloads. Two secondary windings of a current transformer associated with the power line are connected to provide power to two separate power supply circuits. One circuit supplies power to a control circuit and the other circuit supplies control current to the Hall generator. The output voltage of the Hall generator is compared with a predetermined value in the control circuit. If a predetermined overload occurs, the control circuit energizes a trip coil for opening the power line.
