Answer / vijaykumar

Protection of the feeders depends upon the load but not on
the type of breaker used.
VCB-measure the Contact resistance and breaking
resistance,tripping time other mechanical interlockings for
the breaker Mechanisms.
ACB-Check the contact reisitance and the contact tips which
are visible to naked eyes,arching chutes,since air is the
quenching media.
