To allow access to a control/display module in an electronic circuit breaker, an adapter and harness are provided for remotely positioning the control/display module in a more accessible location, e.g., on the remote handle operator. An adapter plug and plate installs in place of the control/display module on the circuit breaker. The adapter plug provides connectors for a harness to extend to a mounting plate, which can be attached to the remote handle operator. The control/display module, which was removed from the circuit breaker, is installed in the mounting plate.

Remote LCD adapter and method for electronic circuit breakers

A trip indicator for handle operator for controlling a handle of a circuit breaker comprises a cover having a window sufficiently sized to view indicia indicating a position of the handle, a trip flag having indicia indicating a TRIPPED condition, and a connection between a chuck of the handle operator and the trip flag configured to move the trip flag such that the indicia is visible through the window when the handle is in a TRIPPED position and is not visible through said window when the handle is not in the TRIPPED position.
