A solid-state circuit breaker opens or breaks a circuit on a solid-state level and is therefore faster (and safer) than what’s available today.  In addition, because it already has the solid-state platform – a solid-state circuit breaker is smart, meaning it senses, learns, and can be programmed to control power like never before, and without additional equipment.  This, in turn, lowers equipment costs, installation, and carbon footprint.
