Abstract
An electrical unit having a frame provided with a terminal means and a bus-bar means electrically interconnected to the terminal means for transmitting electrical current between the terminal means and desired devices electrically interconnected to the bus-bar means, the bus-bar means having a pair of bus-bar sections spaced from each other and having a selector arrangement for electrically interconnecting the bus-bar sections together when the selector arrangement is in one position relative to the frame and for electrically disconnecting the bus-bar sections from each other when the selector arrangement is in another position relative to the frame. The selector arrangement comprises an electrical connector that wedges against both of the bus-bar sections when said selector means is in the one position thereof and a spring is operatively associated with the electrical connector to urge the same into its wedging relation.
