With which of the following, a circuit breaker must be equipped for remote operation ?

Correct answer: C. Shunt trip

  • A. Inverse time trip
  • B. Time-delay trip
  • C. Shunt trip
  • D. None of the above
  • E. All of the above

Explanation

A shunt trip releases a circuit breaker when an external control voltage is applied, allowing it to be operated remotely. Inverse-time and time-delay trips respond to fault current conditions rather than remote commands.
