ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides an apparatus and method of interrupting the current in a circuit wherein the magnetic pressure induced by current flow through a conductor causes the conductor to flow and thereby open the associated circuit. Magnetic pressure may be derived from Lorenz equations. Gravity is not relied upon to cause the conductor material to flow. The invention may be used in circuits having high currents relative to conductor size and material selection.
