SUMMARY
The discussion clarifies the distinction between motorized breakers and standard circuit breakers, emphasizing that motorized breakers utilize a low voltage motor to facilitate remote operation of the breaker mechanism. Unlike simple breakers, which require manual operation, motorized breakers can be controlled via a remote system, such as a Lyntec controller board. They are specifically designed for electric motors operating at both 60 Hz and 50 Hz, providing functions such as fault signaling, automatic reconnections, and protection against electrical faults like short circuits.
