Figure 1: Eaton Cutler-Hammer CHB120 1-Pole 20A Circuit Breaker. This image displays the Eaton Cutler-Hammer CHB120 circuit breaker, a single-pole device with a 20 Amp rating. It features a white toggle switch for ON/OFF/TRIPPED states and screw terminals for electrical connections. The model number 'CHB120' is visible on the label.
6. Ts'ebetso
The CHB120 circuit breaker has three primary positions for its toggle switch:
- BULELA: The circuit is energized, and power is flowing. The toggle is typically pushed fully towards the "ON" marking.
- TIMA: The circuit is de-energized, and power is interrupted. The toggle is typically pushed fully towards the "OFF" marking.
- TRIPPED: When an overcurrent or short circuit occurs, the breaker automatically trips to protect the circuit. The toggle will move to an intermediate position, usually between ON and OFF. To reset a tripped breaker, first push the toggle firmly to the full OFF position, then push it to the full ON position.
7. Tlhokomelo
Circuit breakers generally require minimal maintenance. However, periodic visual inspection is recommended:
- Inspect for any signs of physical damage, discoloration, or burning.
- Ensure all connections are tight. (TLHOKOMELISO: Disconnect power before checking connections).
- Keep the electrical panel area clean and free from obstructions.
8. Ho rarolla mathata
If your CHB120 circuit breaker frequently trips, consider the following:
- Overloaded Circuit: The most common cause of tripping. Disconnect some appliances or devices from the circuit to reduce the load.
- Potoloho e Khutšoanyane: A direct connection between hot and neutral/ground wires can cause a trip. Inspect wiring and connected devices for damage.
- Phoso ea Motheo: If current leaks to the ground, it can cause a trip (though this breaker is not a GFCI).
- Faulty Appliance/Device: A malfunctioning appliance connected to the circuit can cause repeated tripping. Unplug devices one by one to identify the culprit.
- Faulty Breaker: In rare cases, the circuit breaker itself may be defective. If all other causes are ruled out, consult a qualified electrician for inspection and potential replacement.
If you are unable to resolve the issue, contact a qualified electrician.
