摘要： An auxiliary switch actuating mechanism is for a circuit breaker including a housing, separable contacts, an operating mechanism with an operating handle interconnected to the separable contacts by a linkage assembly, and an auxiliary switch having a contact member. The auxiliary switch actuating mechanism includes an actuating lever with first and second ends and a pivot portion engaging the housing proximate the auxiliary switch. A torsion spring biases the actuating lever towards engaging and actuating the contact member of the auxiliary switch. The contact member is actuated when the separable contacts are not tripped open and the linkage assembly is not collapsed. When the circuit breaker trips, the linkage assembly collapses, engaging and pivoting the actuating lever, in order to overcome the bias and disengage and deactivate the contact member.

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 (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.

摘要： A push-to-trip assembly is provided for an electrical switching apparatus, such as a circuit breaker. The push-to-trip assembly includes a push-to-trip actuator having first and second ends and being movable among a first position corresponding to the circuit breaker separable contacts being closeable, and a second position corresponding to the second end cooperating with a trip bar to cause the circuit breaker operating mechanism to trip open the separable contacts. The first end is accessible from the exterior of the housing to actuate the push-to-trip actuator from the first position to the second position. A biasing element biases the push-to-trip actuator away from the base toward the first position. At least one cover stop of the push-to-trip actuator engages a corresponding portion of the housing cover to stop movement of the push-to-trip actuator. An overtravel restraint proximate the second end of the push-to-trip actuator restrains movement of the trip bar.

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.
