A power distribution switchgear including a housing to which a switch is mounted, housing has an opening, the first and second electric contact connected to a first and second conductors. A rotating operating shaft of inserted into the opening, and an actuator having a first end coupled to the shaft and a second end coupled to the second contact. The actuator and shaft made of an electrically insulating material. The shaft supported in the housing by the actuator member. The interface is located at a distance D from the longitudinal axis Y of the shaft that is longer than a distance d between axis Y and a circumferential edge that delimits the opening.
