Abstract

An apparatus for an electrical switch that includes a rotor cam having a rotor interface, a handle interface, and a spring arm interface. The rotor interface includes a plurality of side interface features that couple the rotor cam to a rotor of the electrical switch so that rotation of the rotor cam causes rotation of the rotor. The handle interface allows coupling of the rotor cam to a handle, wherein the handle interface is sized so as to allow a predetermined amount of independent rotation of the handle relative to the rotor cam before further rotation of the handle causes rotation of the rotor cam. The spring arm interface couples a spring arm of the electrical switch to the rotor cam so that a bias spring of the spring arm biases the spring arm against the rotor cam. Numerous other embodiments are provided.
