ABSTRACT:
A solid state circuit breaker is provided with circuitry for permitting off/on/reset operations actuated by mechanical toggle switch for close simulation of magnetic circuit breaker operation in three phase or other multiphase systems. A power continuity feature is provided for load power by locating the control switch so that it opens all of the circuit except the static power switch branch. The control switch is located between two of the supply voltage phases and the power supply for the control circuitry. The correct zero crossover of one phase is utilized to produce turn-on at zero degrees of that one phase while the other two phases are respectively at minus 120.degree. and plus 120.degree. without any significant impairment of overall circuit breaker performance. An overcurrent protection system is included that uses optical isolators with reduced sensing voltages developed directly from terminals of the power switch elements.
