Abstract: An electric switch, more particularly a current-limiter, to be actuated by a control pin which indicates the OFF or the ON condition, and which can be opened also by the agency of thermomagnetic tripping mechanisms and by means of a coil. A crank lever is linked to a swinging assembly which is rockably mounted about the pin and to a rocker carrying the rod to actuate the movable contacts. The lever, to be able to permit that the contacts may be closed, must rest on a step of another lever and this resting relationship can be undone either by acting upon the pin, or by means of the tripping mechanisms and the coil. The opening by means of the tripping mechanisms takes place with a kind of "stroke trip" action, the mechanism being automatically reset during opening. The action of the tripping mechanisms is visually displayed and the reclosure of such a switch can be caused dependent from a local intervention by means of a pushbutton.

Abstract: A distribution transformer having a secondary circuit breaker utilizing a movable bridging contact between two stationary contacts for completing a series circuit therethrough. The movable bridging contact is spring biased towards an open position separated from the stationary contacts, but with the circuit breaker in the normally closed position is held in engagement with the stationary contacts by a latching mechanism which is responsive to a bimetal or magnetic trip element to allow the circuit breaker to trip open during overload conditions. The conducting bridging contact completes a series circuit through the circuit breaker which opens during circuit interruption. The secondary circuit breaker can also, if desired, be provided with a signal-light circuit which activates a signal light, on the exterior housing of the transformer, when current through the circuit breaker exceeds a low signal overload value which is less than the trip value. The signal light circuit is reset by turning the operator handle, which is located on the transformer housing, past the on position away from the off position. An emergency overload control is provided for increasing the tripping level of the circuit breaker during selected overload periods. The bridging contact is disposed near the end of an elongated operating arm which is linked to the circuit breaker operating mechanism. A plurality of poles are operated utilizing only one operating mechanism by connecting the elongated operating arms with a strong metallic member for simultaneous operation of all poles. The single signal light provided for each multi-pole circuit breaker can be activated by the bimetals of any one of the individual poles.
