<p>A circuit interruption device (100) includes a conductive element (218) configured to be coupled to a circuit, a contact arm (214) configured to move with respect to the conductive element (218) between a first position and a second position, and a biasing element (216) configured to apply a biasing force on the contact arm (214) to maintain contact between the contact arm (214) and the conductive element (218) when the contact arm (214) is in the first position, wherein the contact arm (214) is configured such that a current flow through the contact arm (214) causes an electromagnetic repulsive force to act on the contact arm (214) in a second direction that is opposite the first direction.</p> |
