What is a solid-state circuit breaker?

Solid-state circuit breakers are faster, can be dynamically adjusted and can be connected to the intelligent network and monitored remotely. They can be used in various applications, including residential, commercial and industrial AC systems.

Why are solid-state circuit breaker variants gaining a bigger market share?

With advancements in the wide-bandgap semiconductor technology, solid-state circuit breaker variants are taking on a bigger market share. Wide-bandgap semiconductor switches have lower on-state losses and higher efficiency during normal operation compared to silicon-based semiconductors.

Are sic FETs a good choice for solid-state circuit breakers?

Interest in solid-state circuit breakers is rising, and normally-off SiC FETs in a dual-gate setup offer a simplified path to high-current DC and AC protection solutions. 10BASE-T1S is set to replace traditional interfaces, while being faster and only using single twisted pair.

What is ksis1-63 circuit breaker?

KSiS1-63 is a multi-functional intelligent circuit breaker, which integrates power electronic semiconductor technology, low-voltage electrical equipment technology and digital intelligent communication technology to realize low-power operation, remote switching, dual protection, metering and other functions in small size.

What is a wide-bandgap semiconductor switch?

Wide-bandgap semiconductor switches have lower on-state losses and higher efficiency during normal operation compared to silicon-based semiconductors. Solid-state circuit breakers (SSCBs), also known as circuit e-breakers, do not contain mechanical parts as their switch is a semiconductor.
