What is BS EN 3661-005 - Polarized signal contact circuit breakers about?
The ability to withstand extreme temperatures is vital for aerospace components, including electrical fittings. The BS EN 3661 series discusses single-pole, temperature compensated circuit breakers for aerospace applications. BS EN 3661-005 is a European Standard that discusses the characteristics of polarized signal contact circuit breakers for aerospace applications.
BS EN 3661-005 is part five of BS EN 3661-005 and specifies the characteristics of single-pole circuit breakers, temperature compensated with a rated current from 20 A to 50 A, used in aircraft on-board circuits at a temperature between − 55 °C and 125 °C and at an altitude of 15 000 m max. These circuit breakers are operated by a push-pull type single push button (actuator), with delayed action "trip-free" tripping with a polarized signal contact which is open when main contacts are closed, and inversely. They will continue to function up to the short-circuit current.
