A circuit breaker that may be plugged onto an electrical panel. The circuit breaker is preferably a low voltage circuit breaker in the range of 120-240 volts. The circuit breaker includes an electrical clip with a curved inner surface that contacts a curved outer surface of an electrical connector on the electrical panel. The circuit breaker includes a protrusion that prevents the circuit breaker from being installed in electrical panels without an electrical connector for the electrical clip to engage.

Circuit breaker with plug-on connector and mounting protrusion

A circuit breaker is provided that may be plugged onto an electrical panel. The circuit breaker is preferably a low voltage circuit breaker in the range of 120-240 volts. The circuit breaker has an electrical clip with a curved inner surface that contacts a curved outer surface of an electrical connector on the electrical panel.

An information display system for a switching device having a handle includes a cover for the switching device and a faceplate. The cover includes an opening sized to allow passage of the handle. The faceplate is configured to carry information about the switching device. The faceplate is rotatable with respect to the cover to change an orientation of the information.

Information display system for switching device, switching device, and method

An arc chute assembly for use in an automatic transfer switch includes a housing including a pair of opposing sidewalls and a primary deionization plate coupled between the pair of opposing sidewalls. The primary deionization plate includes a tongue portion oriented substantially midway between the opposing sidewalls and extending toward a contact assembly. The tongue portion is configured to facilitate suppressing an electric arc originating from the contact assembly.

A circuit interrupter trip apparatus operably connected to an operating mechanism of a circuit interrupter includes a sensor and a switch operably connected and responsive to the sensor. The switch is positioned such that the sensor changes the operating state of the switch in response to detection of a predetermined electrical condition, such as an electrical fault. A controller is operably connected to the switch and is configured to activate the operating mechanism in response to a change in the operating state of the switch.

Circuit interrupter trip apparatus and method

A circuit breaker assembly is disclosed. The assembly includes a base having an interior bottom surface that includes a first engagement feature and a circuit breaker cassette having an exterior bottom surface that includes a second engagement feature. The cassette is oriented in the base to provide for a current path through the base in a first direction. The first engagement feature engages with the second engagement feature and restrains movement of the cassette relative to the base in a second direction that is perpendicular to the first direction and parallel to the interior bottom surface.

Circuit breaker apparatus

A circuit breaker having a set of electrical contacts, a first actuator in fluid communication with the set of electrical contacts, a second actuator in operable communication with the first actuator, and an operating mechanism in operable communication with the set of electrical contacts and the second actuator is disclosed. Pressurized gas created by separation of the set of electrical contacts acts on and drives the first actuator, which acts on and drives the second actuator, which effectuates tripping of the operating mechanism.

Pressure sensitive trip mechanism for circuit breakers

An electrically isolating iso bearing for a circuit breaker is provided that comprises an inner surface, an outer surface, and a body extending therebetween, said inner surface comprising a pair of bosses and a pair of openings, said outer surface comprising at least one boss, said body comprising a pair of rotor protective flaps.

Apparatus for electrically isolating circuit breaker rotor components

A housing for a circuit breaker motor operating mechanism is disclosed. The housing comprises a base having a plurality of walls connected to a floor thereby defining an interior volume; a cover hingedly attached to one wall of the plurality of walls; and a locking device including a first member connected to the base and a second member connected to the cover and engaged to the first member, the locking device positively securing the cover to the base thereby enclosing the interior volume.
