A circuit breaker is an electrical switching mechanism used to protect and control electrical power supply systems. It can be operated manually or automatically. The circuit breaker helps to trip the circuit during a short circuit or another electrical fault. This aids in the protection of the electrical system. It's used in small and medium substations, railway systems, high-voltage transmission & distribution lines, and various other places. Applications to protect the electrical system.

Air circuit breaker (ACB) is a circuit breaker for the purpose of protecting low voltage circuit, mainly for energizing and cutting off high current. Air Circuit Breaker (ACB) is an electrical device used to provide Overcurrent and short-circuit protection for electric circuits over 800 Amps to 10K Amps. These are usually used in low voltage applications below 450V. We can find these systems in Distribution Panels (below 450V).

Air Circuit Breaker (ACB) is used for the protection of plants, electrical machines, transformers, capacitors, and generators against short circuit, under or over voltage, under or over frequency, reverse power, earth fault, and other faults. Hence, it is mostly adopted in the industrial and commercial sectors, where the demand for these devices is largest.

Air Circuit Breaker Challenges:

• Slow paced technological evolution across developing regions
• High dependency on imports
• Lack of technology development in air circuit breakers

Air Circuit Breaker Restraints:

• The increasing usage of miniature and SF6 circuit breakers
• Rising competition from unorganized sector from various circuit breakers

Air Circuit Breaker Opportunities:

• Replacement of aging grid infrastructure and the need for reliable T&D networks
• Growing focus on renewable energy production and the emergence of concepts like smart cities anticipated to provide growth opportunities

The end-user segment of air circuit breaker market is further segmented into utility, industrial and commercial. The utility segment holds a market for air circuit breakers in power plants for the protection of electrical machines such as generators, transformers, and capacitors. The industrial segment is holds a market for air circuit breakers increasing deployment of the ACBs in industries for protection and controlling the electrical components & sub-stations and improve the industrial efficiency. The commercial segment is also leading the market share owing to the wide application of ACBs in shopping malls complexes, hospitals, and universities. The growing demand for these circuit breakers owing to increasing demand from power plants and utilities is projected to increase its share in this market during the forecast period.

The air circuit breaker, by application, is segmented based on the end-users it caters. The industrial segment was the largest market and is projected to maintain its position owing to the increasing demand for air circuit breakers from the manufacturing and process industries. However, in the future, the residential segment will compete with the industrial sector, due to the rise in the number of residential projects.
