Eaton W-VAC type shunt trips are protective devices that automatically interrupt the electrical current flowing through a circuit when the current or voltage exceeds a predetermined level. These units avoid damage to the electrical equipment and protect people from electrical hazards.

Yes, you can reset a shunt trip breaker by turning off the power to the circuit and then turning it back on.
The main difference between a shunt trip breaker and a standard circuit breaker is that a shunt trip breaker has a separate trip unit connected to the circuit breaker through shunt trip coils, thereby allowing for remote tripping of the breaker for safety or maintenance purposes.
Wiring a shunt trip breaker involves connecting the shunt trip coils to the circuit breaker & the power source and connecting the trip unit to the shunt trip coils & the control system.
Installing a shunt trip breaker involves connecting the shunt trip coil to the control circuit of the breaker and connecting the power and load lines to the appropriate terminals on the breaker.
