Answer:
No
Explanation:
No, overload heaters do not open to break the circuit when their current limit is reached. These are safety device to prevent over heating.
Thermal overload relays in a motor are intended to protect the conductors (windings). Such safety devices are made to maintain the current flow in a circuit at a safety level so as to avoid overheating of the circuitry conductors. And the excess of current is often called as over current.
