摘要:
A circuit breaker (10) includes a housing having an opening, separable contacts (32,26) within the housing, and an operating mechanism for opening and closing the separable contacts (32,26). The operating mechanism includes a generally transparent operating handle (22) having a portion protruding through the opening of the housing. An auxiliary switch (42) associated with the operating mechanism provides a first normally closed output when the separable contacts are open and a second normally open output when the separable contacts are closed. A first LED indicator (110) cooperates with the first output, is proximate the operating handle and is illuminated when the separable contacts are open. A second LED indicator (120) cooperates with the second output, is proximate the operating handle and is illuminated when the separable contacts are closed. One of the first and second LED indicators illuminates the operating handle (22).
摘要:
A circuit breaker includes a housing, a pair of separable contacts within the housing, and an operating mechanism having an operating handle for opening and closing the separable contacts. A micro-switch cooperates with the operating handle and provides a first output when the separable contacts are open and a second output when the separable contacts are closed. A first LED indicator protrudes through the housing and cooperates the first output of the micro-switch. The first LED indicator is illuminated when the separable contacts are open. A second LED indicator protrudes through the housing and cooperates with the second output of the micro-switch. The second LED indicator is illuminated when the separable contacts are closed.

A circuit breaker (10) includes a housing (20), a pair of separable contacts (38,40) within the housing (20), and an operating mechanism (37) having an operating handle (22) for opening and closing the separable contacts (38,40). A micro-switch (108) cooperates with the operating handle (22) and provides a first output (111) when the separable contacts (38,40) are open and a second output (112) when the separable contacts (38,40) are closed. A first LED indicator (104) protrudes through the housing (20) and cooperates with the first output (111) of the micro-switch (108). The first LED indicator (104) is illuminated when the separable contacts (38,40) are open. A second LED indicator (106) protrudes through the housing (20) and cooperates with the second output (112) of the micro-switch (108). The second LED indicator (106) is illuminated when the separable contacts (38,40) are closed.
