Who invented the circuit breaker?
Thomas Edison developed the idea for a circuit breaker in 1879, sketched different concepts in his scientific journals and patented the idea the same year. A circuit breaker disconnects an electrical circuitry by opening a contact when the circulating electrical current reaches levels considered unsafe for the system. Circuit breakers equip every electrical system today, more than 120 years after being invented.
