Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an arc extinguishing unit of a molded case circuit breaker with a barrier provided between a fixed contact and a movable contact when a circuit is cut off, including fixed contacts fixed to part of a base assembly case; movable contacts that come contact or are separated from the fixed contacts; and an arc extinguishing part that extinguishes an arc generated when the movable contacts are separated from the fixed contacts. The arc extinguishing part includes a pair of side plates; multiple grids installed at a fixed interval between the pair of side plates; and arc barriers each installed on a base assembly case in a slidable manner, and configured to be in an open state of being separated from the movable contacts when a normal current flows on the circuit or is cutoff, and to close when a fault current is cutoff.

Abstract: A trip device is disclosed. The trip device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure comprises an adjustment crossbar. The adjustment crossbar is in contact with or is spaced apart from a shooter and can open or close a breaker having the trip device. The adjustment crossbar is formed by coupling a fixed crossbar and a movable crossbar. The movable crossbar is slidably coupled to the fixed crossbar. The shooter is in contact with the fixed crossbar. Therefore, regardless of the movement of the movable crossbar, the contact between the shooter and the fixed crossbar can be maintained.
