Abstract
A circuit breaker system has been provided for the controlled interruption of at least one circuit, with a mechanical breaker element and an adjustment device coupled to the breaker element, so that the mechanical breaker element can be placed in at least a first, second, and third position in order to selectively break or let pass neighboring circuits in the first, second, or third position. The breaker element is rotatably secured in a fastening device, connected with one foot. The interruption conditions are provided by a magnetic coil, which exerts power by way of a magnetic field on a permanent magnet, which is secured to the breaker element. In the simplest case the circuit breaker system has three conditions at its disposal, by which one of two circuits can be broken. When the coil is without power, one circuit is broken. The other circuit is broken by reversing the circuit direction.
