  1. 1. A qualifying term indicating that the circuit breaker can be set to trip at various values of current, time, or both, within a predetermined range
  2. 3. As an overload persists, this sensing element bends
  3. 5. A qualifying term indicating that no delay is purposely introduced in the tripping action of the circuit breaker
  4. 8. Provides an insulated housing for the circuit breaker components
  5. 9. The value of current, time, or both, at which an adjustable circuit breaker is set to trip

  1. 2. Help to confine, divide, and extinguish an arc each time a breaker opens the circuit and interrupts current
  2. 4. Provide the ability to open and close the circuit
  3. 6. A qualifying term indicating that the circuit breaker does not have any adjustment to alter the value of the current at which it will trip or the time required for its operation
  4. 7. A qualifying term indicating that there is purposely introduced a delay in the tripping-action of the circuit breaker, which delay decreases as the magnitude of the current increases
