CBI Information

Authorized CBI Distributor


The foundations of CBI-electric: low voltage were established in 1949 as a joint venture with the Heinemann Electric Company in Trenton, New Jersey, USA. During 1986 Fuchs Electrical Industries was acquired and merged into a new company called Circuit Breaker Industries Ltd (CBI). CBI-electric: low voltage is a wholly owned company of Reunert Limited. Reunert focuses primarily on the fields of electronic and electrical engineering and is a privately owned company listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange.

With an exciting background of South African pioneering achievements, Circuit Breaker Industries has prospered for more than five decades to become a leader in the design and manufacture of circuit breakers for equipment (hydraulic-magnetic), miniature circuit breakers (hydraulic-magnetic), residual current devices (RCD's), moulded case circuit breakers (thermal-magnetic) and metering products for electrical applications in supply authorities / utilities, mining, original equipment manufacturers, industrial sectors and millions of households.
