Explanation:

A circuit breaker is an electrical switch designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by overcurrent/overload or short circuit. Its basic function is to interrupt current flow after protective relays detect a fault.

Circuit breakers have been designed to detect when there is a fault in the electricity, so it will “trip” and shut down electrical flow. ... This detection is key to preventing surges of electricity that travel to appliances or other outlets, which can cause them to break down
