CBI designs and manufactures circuit breakers for equipment, miniature circuit breakers, moulded case circuit breakers and auxiliary products for the protection of installations and equipment against overload and short circuit. These circuit breakers are suitable for use in residential, industrial, communications, and power distribution applications. The product range consists of Circuit Breakers, Miniature Circuit Breakers, Electronic Residual Current Devices (RCDs), and Metering Products.  Circuit Breakers for equipment with ampere ratings ranging from a fraction of an ampere to thousands of amperes, these circuit breakers are available in industry standard styles. By using the hydraulic-magnetic principle, a large variety of tripping characteristics are available. Customised tripping characteristics can be supplied to suit a particular customer requirement.  Miniature circuit breakers, with ampere ratings ranging from 1A to 100A. By using the hydraulic-magnetic principle, the company is able to offer these products with a large variety of tripping characteristics. Moulded case circuit breakers are offered up to a frame size of 1200A.  Electronic Residual Current Devices, being one of the leaders in this field, the company offers advanced electronic residual current devices (RCD's) for use in residential and industrial applications. These include RCD modules, which can be attached to moulded case circuit breakers.  CBI also manufactures state-of-the-art electrical metering products, which include prepayment and flat rate meters, with associated vending products and miniaturised electronic kWh meters (one of the smallest meters in the world), which simply clip into distribution boards.  CBI is the distributor of Mitsubishi automation, motor control and switchgear products for Sub-Saharan Africa. The product range includes programmable logic controllers, variable speed drives, human machine interfaces, servo drives as well as contactors and relays.
