"Extinguish the arc " ? Say What ?

Just ran some tests with a variable load and found that a 30A Q-line breaker was tripping out at 50-60A on 12v DC (actually about 8vdc at that load, was using a jump box).

Very positive trip when it did, just later than expected.

Makes sense that it would, 20A breaker in TM converter panel does not trip in a 44A surge when the AC starts.

Interesting.
