Coiled and ready for action

The manufacture of
special copper coils for
use as part of trip
fuse/circuit breaker
mechanisms within
domestic and commercial
properties is now an
established part of William Hughes’
growing portfolio of expertise.

The manufacture of

fuse/circuit breaker
mechanisms within

When a current passes along the
conductive copper, a magnetic force
is created through the middle of the
coil. In the event of a current surge
or spike, the magnetic force increases
so that a spring is pulled to trip
the main switch.

Max Hughes, MD, says:”We
already have an established
customer for this product in the
UK – a leading manufacturer of
circuit breakers and switchgear
– and we are now hoping to attract a
European giant in power technology
that is in the process of setting up a new
factory near our recently established
Bulgarian manufacturing facility.”
