What is the rated short circuit capacity of the miniature circuit breaker used?
Breaking Current: The r.m.s value of short circuit current at the instant of contact separation.
What does the ka rating of a circuit breaker mean?
Most times it is the surge current the breaker can withstand in kilo-amps. A normal breaker will see several thousand amps in a short condition. The breaker must be able to withstand and break that current safely.
What is circuit breaker handling trolley?

Can circuit breaker isolate circuit?
That's just what a circuit-breaker is designed to do - Isolate a circuit from the rest of the system.AnswerNot necessarily. A circuit breaker is a protective device, designed to disconnect circuits in the event of an overcurrent due to overload or short circuit. While a low-/medium-voltage circuit breaker, of course, can be used to open a circuit, it does not necessarily provide isolation. In general, isolation requires a visible break in the circuit; as a circuit breaker's contacts are enclosed, a visible break is not possible.In the case of a high-voltage circuit breaker, the device is used to open a circuit but does not isolate that circuit from the supply. Isolation must be provided using separate,usually non-loadbreaking devices (i.e. devices which are not designed to open a live circuit) called isolators (UK term) or disconnector (US/Canadian term), which provide a visual break in the circuit. The exception to this is a racking-type circuit breaker which, after it has been opened, can be racked down from the circuits to provide a visual disconnection.
Were is the platinum in a circuit breaker?
There isn't, the contacts in a circuit breaker are plated with silver.

What is the difference between the rupturing capacity and the short circuit breaking capacity?
Rupturing capacity:Rupturing capacity or breaking capacity expresses the current that a circuit breaker is capable of breaking at a given recovery voltage under certain set conditions of operation. It is expressed in MVA The set conditions are power factor,recovery voltage and rate of rise of restriking voltage. When the current broken is symmetrical it is called symmetrical breaking capacity. When the current broken is asymmetrical it is called asymmetrical breaking capacity. It is common to designate circuit breaker capacity based on asymmetrical breaking capacity. Breaking capacity of a circuit breaker =√3xVxIx10-6MVA Short circuit breaking capacity: It is the highest value of short circuit current which a circuit breaker is capable of breaking under specified conditions of transient recovery voltage and power frequency voltage. It is expressed in kA. The breaking current is expressed in two ways1)The r.m.s value of a.c component of current at the instant of contact separtation.2)The percentage of d.c component of current at the instant of contact separtation. While selecting the circuit breaker for a particular location in the power system the fault level at that point is determined.
