Abstract

A terminal barrier assembly for one or more terminals of an electrical switching apparatus, such as an electrical circuit breaker or switch. The terminal barrier includes a first barrier portion including a first opening portion, and a second barrier portion including a second opening portion. The first opening portion and second opening portion interface with one another to form a shielding aperture configured for shielding around one or more line wires extending from the one or more terminals. According to another aspect, an electrical switching apparatus including the terminal barrier assembly and methods of assembly of an electrical switching apparatus are provided, as are other aspects.
