Abstract
A solid-state circuit breaker (SSCB) includes an airgap operating mechanism including components and electronics including semiconductors and software algorithms that control the power and can interrupt extreme currents. The SSCB further includes a housing that houses the components of the airgap operating mechanism and the electronics. The housing of the solid-state circuit breaker includes a heat sink that interfaces with a natural air flow such as an existing vertical air channel inside an electrical panel. The heat sink contains a thermally conductive and electrically insulating (TC/EI) plastic.
