  • بند (او): Pushing the toggle switch to the 'OFF' or 'O' position opens the circuit, stopping the flow of electricity.
  • TRIPPED: If an overload or short circuit occurs, the breaker will automatically move to a tripped position, typically midway between 'ON' and 'OFF', or fully 'OFF' depending on the specific breaker design. This indicates that the circuit has been interrupted for safety.

To reset a tripped breaker:

  1. First, identify and correct the cause of the trip (e.g., unplug overloaded appliances).
  2. Move the breaker toggle firmly to the full 'OFF' position.
  3. Then, move the toggle firmly to the full 'ON' position.
