发明名称 Circuit breaker with lockable trip unit
摘要 This concerns a molded case circuit breaker having separable main contacts and an operating mechanism utilized to cause the separable main contacts to open and close. A trip unit is provided to actuate the operating mechanism in desirable circumstances. The aforementioned trip unit has disposed on an outside surface thereof, dials for adjustment of the thermal and magnetic tripping characteristics of the circuit breaker. The face of the trip unit also has a set of hinge regions disposed therein into which a plastic, transparent, hinged cover may be inserted. The top of the trip unit has a convenient ridge around the outside of the dial regions. The cover after insertion is rotated downward on to the face of the dial region and then moved transversely to abut one of the ridges. Both the cover and the surface of the dial region have bridged openings therein through which a single wire may be fed and locked in place with a solder lock at the ends of the wires. Thus the trip unit has a non-removable cover which covers the dial settings but, because the cover is transparent, the dial settings can be viewed.
