Bus bar terminal means for pairs of circuit-braking elements

摘要

A readily removable terminal means, to make connection to two pairs of circuit breakers as used on an electric furnace, is provided without use of a terminal board and connectors therefrom. The terminal means consists of two U-shaped rigid bus bars each with a mounting flat and a supply wire connector lug mounted thereon. The outer U-shaped bus bar is sized so that its ends connect to the two outermost points of connection of the four aligned circuit breakers, while the ends of the inner U-shaped bus bar connects to the two innermost points of connection. Between its ends the inner bus bar is offset in a plane outwardly of the outer bus bar. This offset avoids any contact between it and the crossing supply wire to be connected to the inner bus bar.
