Techniques characterize a circuit breaker device utilizing an apparatus having an energy storage device for storing and releasing a particular amount of energy and a controller. The controller (i) disconnects the energy storage device from an interface and connects the energy storage device to an external power source to store the particular amount of energy in the energy storage device, and (ii) disconnects the energy storage device from the external power source and connects the energy storage device to the interface such that energy is released from the energy storage device through the interface and through the circuit breaker device. The circuit breaker device is deemed to belong to a first category when the circuit breaker device trips in response to the released energy, and a second category when the circuit breaker device does not trip in response to the released energy.
