Data record `instr.primary-injection-test-set.low-voltage-breaker-trips`

Verified 2026-10-27 Confidence: High

For a low-voltage circuit breaker the current is injected through each pole in turn and the trip time is measured; injecting a high current is the only way to verify that a direct-acting breaker trips, and the long-time, short-time, instantaneous and ground-fault functions are each tested against the bands of the published time-current curve.
