Abstract
A plug-in unit configured to be coupled to a busway includes a housing configured to be secured to the busway, an electrical coupling assembly coupled to the housing and configured to move between an uncoupled position in which the plug-in unit is uncoupled to the busway and a coupled position in which the plug-in unit is electrically coupled to the busway, and an actuator assembly coupled to the housing and the electrical coupling assembly. The actuator assembly is configured to move the electrical coupling assembly between the uncoupled and coupled positions and to secure the plug-in unit to the housing. Other embodiments of the plug-in unit and a method of securing a plug-in unit to a busway are further disclosed.
