A

It breaks the circuit if the current is greater than 13 A13\text{ A}13 A, and is connected to the neutral wire.

B

It breaks the circuit if the current is less than 13 A13\text{ A}13 A, and is connected to the live wire.

C

It breaks the circuit if the current is greater than 13 A13\text{ A}13 A, and is connected to the live wire.
