neutral  Jennifer Levey: 'llave térmica' is a specific type of circuit breaker, but circuit breaker is far too vague in the given context//Yes, it 'covers the meaning' but is not the usual terminology.
3 hrs
  -> "thermal circuit breaker" covers the meaning, I presume

agree  La Nereida: I agree. I'm working on a translation with lots of terms related to electricity, and I've asked several technicians and they have all agreed that this is the best term to refer to "llave térmica" in accordance to the pictures shown in google.
