The JB is a DC circuit breaker dedicated to multi string photovoltaic installations.
This circuit breaker is designed to protect the cables located between each string of photovoltaic modules and the photovoltaic inverter against overloads and short circuits (see application diagram).
Combined with a switch, the JB will be installed in a string PV protection enclosure at the end of each string of photovoltaic modules.
It can be locked (by a padlocking device) in OFF position as a safety measure for removal of the PV inverter.

Since a fault current can flow in the reverse direction to the operating current, the JB can detect and protect against any bidirectional current.
To ensure the safety of the installation, it is necessary, depending on the various types of application, to combine the JB with:

  • a residual current device at the AC end
  • a fault passage detector (insulation monitoring device) at the DC end
  • an earth protection circuit breaker at the DC end
    In all cases, fast action on site will be required to clear the fault (protection not ensured in the event of a double fault).

JB is not polarity sensitive: (十) and (-) wires can be inversed without any risk.
The JB is: delivered with three inter-pole barriers to providing increased isolation distance between two adjacent connectors.

Langir 1 Pole DC Circuit Breaker Introduction

Langir’s 1 pole DC circuit breakers are built with top quality and functionality you can always depend on. They are electrical switches made to automatically protect an electrical circuit from damage due to a short circuit, overcurrent, or overloading.

Their basic purpose is to stop the current flow once it identifies an abnormality in the current supply. Similar to AC circuit breakers, there are several versions of the 1 pole DC circuit breaker such as the molded case version and miniature version.

1 Pole DC Circuit Breaker Working Principle

The basic type has a simple switch that is connected to either an electromagnet or bimetallic strip. Hot wires are connected to the ends of the switch.

When the 1 pole DC circuit breaker is switched on, the electricity flows from the bottom terminal and passes through the electromagnet then to the moving contact and then across the stationary contact, then finally out to the upper terminal.

The electromagnet is magnetized during this process but if the electricity jumps to unsafe levels, it triggers the lever causing the stationary contact to cut the circuit hence shutting down the electricity.

The bimetallic strip work similarly except that a high current bends it to cut the circuit.

Application 

Normally, the 1 pole DC circuit breakers are used in applications such as:

  • Circuit breaker boxes
  • DC electric motors
  • Electric circuits that are battery powered
  • Electric vehicles for charging stations
  • Fuse box in gas and electric cars
  • LED lamps (high efficiency)
  • Photovoltaic solar panel installations
  • UPS systems (Uninterruptible Power Supply)
  • Welding machines (electric arc)

And there could be many more other applications.
