I need a example on circuit breaker (with arc ) in simscape. So that I can know about this block even more .

Use this circuit breaker for the example.

Hi @Sathwik
The Circuit Breaker block models a single-phase breaker that interrupts the electrical circuit based on an external control signal and phase current information.
- The breaker remains open (non-conducting, modeled as a closed resistance) when the terminal voltage vT is less than the Threshold.
- The breaker transitions to an closed state (modeled as a open conductance) when vT is greater than or equal to the Threshold.
Run the following command in command window to run the Frequency Dependent Transmission Line example.
openExample('simscapeelectrical/FrequencyDependentLineExample')
The example uses a ramp singal as a threshold signal to the switch breaker to connect the input voltage to the transmission line.
I hope this helps!
