    Abstract: An apparatus and method for interrupting the flow of electrical current in a line is disclosed. The invention provides for better limitation of current than can be achieved in the prior art. With effective current limitation, the magnetic force generated by the circuit breaker coil will not be excessive thereby reducing potential damage to the circuit breaker armature, increasing the interruption rating of the circuit breaker and end-use equipment and decreasing the interruption pressure within the circuit breaker.

    Abstract: Methods of arc suppression connecting a PTC material in parallel with a pair of contacts but in series with a second pair of contacts. The PTC material could be doped-BaTiO.sub.3 -ceramics, conductive polymer, or metallic PTC materials. The two pairs of contacts should be so mechanically associated that the second pair of contacts must be always opened right after the opening of the first pair. It is enough for some applications to connect one pair of contacts in parallel with a polyswitch or BaTiO.sub.3 -ceramics. For medium and high voltage circuit breakers, more than two pairs of contacts may be needed, and all these contacts should be opened sequentially during a circuit interruption. According to the methods, simple structured circuit breakers can be made to protect circuits from a short circuit, an overload and a ground fault. The circuit breaker invented here can provide an electronic alarm signal when a fault current occurs. The principle of the electronic indication of a fault current is applicable to any circuit breakers. By adding a series coil around the same core of the trip coil in a common ground fault circuit interrupter or receptacle, the interrupter or receptacle can be improved to act as a circuit breaker.

    Abstract: A circuit breaker for interrupting the flow of electric current in a line includes a switch connected in series with the line, the switch having an open position and a closed position. At least one positive temperature coefficient resistivity element (PTC element) is connected in series with the line. A first magnetic coil is positioned around a yoke, for example, an iron core, and connected in parallel with the PTC element and a second magnetic coil is positioned around the yoke and connected in series with the line and the switch. A voltage limiting device, such as a metal oxide varistor, is connected in parallel with the at least one PTC element. An armature is pivotally mounted in relation to the yoke wherein the yoke and the armature form a magnetic circuit with the first magnetic coil and the second magnetic coil. A trip lever is connected to the armature and the switch, the trip lever effecting movement of the switch from a closed position to an open position wherein the flow of electric current in the line is interrupted. When the first magnetic coil or the second magnetic coil reaches a predetermined current value, the armature is pulled to trip by the magnetic circuit wherein the trip lever is pulled to a tripped position to effect the movement of the switch to an open position wherein the flow of electric current in the line is interrupted.
