摘要： An interlock (15) for electric power switches (1a, 1b) includes indicator followers (23a, 23b) each following a state indicator (9) on an associated electric power switch (1) indicating the open/closed state of the switch. A first coupler (57 1, 57 2 ) couples (57 1, 57 2 ) one end (59) of an associated elongated connecting member (55) to each indicator follower (23). A second coupler (77a, 77b) couples the other end (79) of each elongated connecting member (55) to an auxiliary trip member actuator (39) which actuates an auxiliary trip member (13) on another electric power switch (1) to maintain it in the open/tripped condition when the associated electric power switch is in the closed condition. The first couplers (57) include a swivel (63) through which the elongated connecting member (55) slides and a compliant member (67), preferably in the form of a helical compression spring, captured between the swivel (63) and a stop nut (69) on the one end of the elongated connecting member (55).

摘要： Two molded case electrical switches (3a,3b) such as circuit breakers, network protectors, disconnect switches and transfer switches, are secured together side-by-side by joining blocks (21) having tongues (27,29) extending along their sidewalls (23) which engage undercutting grooves (13,17) undercutting the irregular surfaces (11a,11b) of the confronting sidewalls (9a,9b) of the switch molded casings with an interference fit. Separate joining blocks (21f,21r) for the front (5f) and rear sections (5r) of the molded casing are driven into place and retained by bolts (45) engaging flanges (49a-49b) on the molded casing. The poles (7) are paralleled by external conductors (61,63) in any desired configuration so that the standard switches (3a,3b) can be used without customization.

摘要： A mechanical AND gate (39) has a pivot plate (41) with an elongated slot (43) engaged by an output coupling (53) formed by a pair of pins (57) radially offset from the end of an output shaft (51). A pair of input couplings (45a,45b) secured to the pivot plate (41) at points laterally offset on opposite sides of the elongated slot (43) couple first and second elongated actuators (77 12 -77 32 ) to the pivot plate (41). Movement of only one of the elongated actuators (77 12 -77 32 ) to an ON position causes the pivot plate (41) to translate relative to the output coupling (53), but not to rotate. However, when the second actuator (77 12 -77 32 ) is moved to an ON position in a direction parallel but opposite to the movement of the first actuator (77 12 -77 32 ), the pivot plate (41) rotates to rotate the output coupling (53), and therefore, the output shaft (51). This mechanical AND gate (39) has particular application to interlocking three electric power switches (7 1 -7 2 ) such as circuit breakers so that any two, but not all three, circuit breakers (7 1 -7 2 ) may be on at one time.

摘要： An electronic trip unit for a circuit breaker (10) having two current sensors (16 and 17) per phase, wherein the first magnetic core current transformer (16) is designed to monitor current in the normal and overcurrent range, and the second low-permeability core sensor (17) is designed to produce an override trip signal at or below the short time withstand current rating of the circuit breaker (10).
