A shunt trip assembly is structured to be operatively coupled to a number of circuit breakers. The shunt trip assembly includes a housing assembly and an actuating assembly. The actuating assembly includes a limited number of components. In another embodiment, the shunt trip assembly housing assembly is a substantially sealed housing assembly. In another embodiment, the shunt trip assembly housing assembly includes a single mounting panel.

Shunt trip assembly

A shunt trip assembly structured to be operatively coupled to a number of circuit breakers uses a lever to actuate an operating mechanism of the circuit breakers and uses a selectively powered solenoid to power the lever. The shunt trip assembly is composed from a standardized shunt assembly designed for use with a plurality of different solenoid coils, such that a given standardized shunt assembly will be operative regardless of which of the solenoid coils are added to the standardized shunt assembly. The shunt trip assembly requires less than 10 amps of current to operate; can be powered by any of a 12 volt AC/DC, 24 volt AC/DC, or 48 volt AC/DC power source; and is functional in temperatures ranging from &#x2212;40&#xb0; C. to +60&#xb0; C.
