Abstract (en)

[origin: EP4068328A1] A circuit breaker is disclosed. The circuit breaker includes a housing assembly, and a contacting system, a leakage protection mechanism and a leakage testing mechanism arranged in the housing assembly, wherein the contacting system includes a handle, a contact head mechanism and an operating mechanism; when the circuit breaker is closed or opened, the operating mechanism is driven by the handle to close or open the contact head mechanism; the leakage testing mechanism includes a leakage testing button, and a leakage testing loop cooperating with a zero-sequence current transformer of the leakage protection mechanism; the leakage testing loop includes a first test contact point cooperating with the leakage testing button, and a second test contact point cooperating with the contacting system, wherein the second test contact point remains closed, and the contacting system breaks the second test contact point when the circuit breaker is opened; and the contacting system makes way for the second test contact point when the circuit breaker is closed, such that the second test contact point resets and remains closed without affecting contact head parameters of the contact head mechanism, thereby ensuring a contact head pressure when the contact head mechanism is closed.
