A SWITCH ARRANGEMENT FOR AN ELECTRICAL SWITCHGEAR

摘要

A switch arrangement (1) for an electrical switchgear (2) comprises a terminal arrangement comprising an insulating housing (3) containing a first electrical contact (5) and a second electrical contact (6) which are spaced apart along an axial direction. A breaker (4) is moveable along the axial direction in the housing to a first position. When the breaker (4) is in the first position and closed it electrically connects the first electrical contact (5) and the second electrical contact (6). The housing (3) is split into a plurality of separate sections (3a, 3b) along the axial direction, and wherein at least one of the electrical contacts (5) is in one of the sections (3a) and at least another of the electrical contacts (6) is in another section (3b).
