Abstract: A stab for use in a plug-in assembly includes a stab piece and a lug. The stab piece includes one or more contact arms configured to engage a bus bar, and a base portion coupled to the one or more contact arms. The base portion is configured to be coupled to a stab shaft for rotating the stab about a rotational axis to transition the stab from a retracted position to an extended position. The lug is coupled to the stab piece and configured to receive wire for transmitting power from the bus bar to an electrical component. The lug is configured to be deformed around the wire to hold the wire when a crimping force is applied to the lug. The lug is configured to hold the wire at a position approximately centered on a rotational axis of the stab shaft when the lug is deformed by the crimping force

Abstract: Embodiments of this present disclosure may include a handle disposed on an outer surface of a housing of electrical circuitry. The handle may provide access to at least a portion of the electrical circuitry. The handle may include a status indicator that emits light in response to a control signal from control circuitry. The status indicator may be disposed around the handle. The control circuitry may detect a state of the electrical protection circuitry. The control circuitry may also transmit the control signal to the status indicator based on the state. The control signal may control one or more properties of the light emitted by the status indicator, and thus indicate to an operator the state of the electrical circuitry.

Abstract: A system includes a multidrop cable and a connector. The connector is configured to couple to one or more MCC withdrawable units installed in one or more respective buckets of an MCC, wherein the connector is configured to couple the one or more MCC withdrawable units to, and decouple the one or more MCC withdrawable units from, the multidrop cable without disrupting a network or a subnet of the MCC.

Abstract: The present inventors have recognized that electrical units for Motor Control Centers (MCC's) can be improved to allow testing in a partially disconnected state while providing ingress protection through the use of sealing members without decreasing the size of the electrical unit. In particular, a full size electrical unit, able to advantageously accommodate a full array of electrical components like most other electrical units, can be partially withdrawn from an MCC for testing while still providing protection from the possibility of shock, gases and/or other hazards by way of sealing members such as gaskets and/or plates. Such sealing members can be mounted to the electrical unit to effectively seal the electrical unit with respect to the MCC when partially withdrawn.

Abstract: An electrical enclosure, such as a Motor Control Centers (MCC), can include a ventilation system providing airflow while protecting from both ingress of solid objects as small as 1.0 millimeter and egress of gasses from an arc flash by providing a protective mesh with holes having a dimension of less than 1 millimeter, a bracket coupled to the mesh for providing a rigid support, and a flap configured to seal against the bracket and block the mesh in response to a pressure wave produced by an arc flash. The flap, normally open for airflow, can close in response to the pressure wave, by bending at a perforation line to move the flap toward the mesh. The electrical enclosure can also include a normally closed exhaust system. The exhaust system can be configured to open in response to the pressure wave to allow the gasses to escape.

Abstract: The detrimental effects of environmental hazards on units having withdrawable stabs or contacts may be overcome by using fixed feed units in compartments in a manner akin to withdrawable units. In particular, multiple fixed feed units may be provided in a single section or column by implementing vertical bus bars providing multiple connection points particular to fixed feed units. As a result, fixed feed units may be mounted to the vertical bus bars, as opposed to horizontal main bus bars or requiring complex wiring, thereby allowing multiple fixed feed units to be efficiently provided to maximize space. An electrically insulating bus support, which may be supplemented with bracing, may provide improved short-circuit protection. Electrically insulating covers over fixed feed unit connections may also provide electrical isolation in the system in accordance with industry standards. Moreover, in one aspect, fixed feed units and withdrawable units may be intermixed.

Abstract: A network distribution adapter may be configured to vertically connect a network cable on one side of an isolation wall (within a vertical wire-way) while connecting another network cable at an angle on an opposing side of the isolation wall (interior to the MCC). This may advantageously allow fitting the adapter in the limited space provided by the vertical wire-way while also providing more reliable protection for the network connections. In one aspect, the network distribution adapter may include a printed circuit board (PCB) which couples a first connector disposed in a first plane parallel to the PCB with a second connector disposed in a second plane at an angle to the first plane. The PCB may be mounted in a housing which, in turn, may be mounted in relation to an opening in the isolation wall.
