CIRCUIT BREAKER TERMINAL ASSEMBLY

摘要

The disclosed terminal assembly for a circuit interrupter comprises three pairs of opposite source and load terminals, each pair being carried on both lateral sides by a pair of first and second side plates by having each lateral side and a recess on that side engaging an associated groove and a raised portion on the front surface of each side plate respectively and connected to adjacent pairs of the opposite source and load terminals through different pairs of the first and second side plates interconnected back to back. All the terminals and side plates are assembled into a unitary structure between two metallic plates by means of bolts and nuts. A supporting strut includes two notches fitted onto the lateral surfaces of end portions of each pair of the opposite source and load terminals and is disposed on each of the side plates. The outermost strut is connected to the adjacent metallic plate trough a lateral locking member and each pair of the intermediate struts are interconnected back to back and connected to the interconnected first and second plates through an intermediate locking member.
