Abstract

A circuit breaker rotary contact arm is used within a plurality of single pole circuit breakers ganged together to form a single multi-pole circuit breaker. To provide uniform contact wear among the associated circuit breaker contacts, the rotor carrying the rotary contact arm pivot is slotted to automatically position the rotary contact arm to allow for changes in the contact geometry while maintaining constant contact compressive forces. The individual circuit breakers connect with the central operation mechanism by means of a single pin.
