Zusammenfassung:A circuit breaker includes an electromechanical switch, a current sensor, a voltage sensor, and a processor. The electromechanical switch is connected in series between a line input terminal and a load output terminal of the circuit breaker and is configured to be placed in a closed state or an open state. The current sensor is configured to sense a magnitude of current flowing in a path between the line input terminal and the load output terminal and generate a current sense signal. The voltage sensor is configured to sense a magnitude of voltage at a point on the path between the line input terminal and the load output terminal and generate a voltage sense signal. The processor is configured to receive and process the current sense signal and the voltage sense signal to determine operational state information of the circuit breaker and to determine power usage information of a load connected to the load output terminal. 一种断路器包含机电开关、电流传感器、电压传感器和处理器。所述机电开关串联连接在所述断路器的线路输入端子与负载输出端子之间,并且被配置成置于闭合状态或断开状态中。所述电流传感器被
