The present invention relates to power input housings and assemblies for power distribution panels. The power input assemblies provide separate cavities with a centerwall for the power input cables to be led into and a cover closing the cavities. The cavities allow power cables to enter through either a top open end or a bottom open end and the cover is adapted to close the other open end when installed. Alternatively, the housing can be oriented with the open ends of the cavities to the sides, permitting cables to enter through either side and the cover closing the other side.

Input power connector for distribution panel

A power distribution panel with a chassis defining an interior with a first opening and a second opposing opening. The panel including a module with a bottom, a first face and a second face, and including a power input terminal, a plurality of power output terminals, and an electrical circuit connecting each power output terminal to the power input terminal, each circuit including a circuit protection device. The power input terminal, the power output terminals and the circuit protection devices are mounted to one of the first or second faces. The module is configured to be received through the first opening and removably mounted within the interior so that the power input terminal, the power output terminals and the circuit protection devices are accessible through one of the first and second openings when the module is mounted within the chassis. A module including power distribution components and circuitry adapted to be removably mounted within a power distribution panel chassis.

Power distribution panel with modular inserts

The present invention relates to a power distribution unit with output power terminals and electrical leads with mating portions connected to extensions of the terminals, with adjacent mating portions and connected extensions offset from one another. Alternatively, an electrical power unit may have one or more power output terminals connected to a corresponding number of power distribution circuits by leads, each lead having a portion parallel to and offset from other adjacent leads in a first direction and another portion parallel to and offset from each adjacent lead in a second direction. The present invention further relates to an output power assembly with inner and outer faces, a first set of terminals on the outer face which are electrically connected to a common conductor along the inner face and a second set of terminals each having individual connectors along the inner face, the individual connectors being offset from each adjacent connector.

Internal power bus and power output assembly

A finger guard for an electrical circuit breaker includes a rear plate with an opening, a guard portion extending from the plate adjacent the opening, and a removable portion, or knock-out, positioned within the opening. A further finger guard for an electrical circuit breaker includes a rear plate with an opening, a guard portion extending from the plate adjacent the opening, and opposing ramped finger grips on the outer walls of the guard portion. A further finger guard for an electrical circuit breaker includes a rear plate with an opening, and a guard portion extending from the plate adjacent the opening, the plate further including a designation holder. An electrical power distribution system with a chassis having an electrical circuit including a mount for an electrical circuit breaker and an opening providing access to the mount, includes a finger guard mounted across the opening. A method of removing a finger guard from an opening on an electric power distribution chassis, removing a portion covering an opening in the finger guard, mounting the finger guard to an electrical circuit breaker, and inserting the electrical circuit breaker into a circuit breaker mount in an electrical circuit within the chassis.
