Abstract: Systems and methods for indicating an operational status of a circuit breaker within a switchgear comprise providing a mechanism-operated control (MOC) assembly arranged within a housing of the circuit breaker. A drive plate is slidably mounted on a wall of the switchgear adjacent to the MOC assembly. A drive arm is pivotably mounted at one end on the wall of the switchgear, the drive arm engaged at an opposite end thereof with the drive plate. A status indicator is disposed on the wall of the switchgear, wherein changing an operational state of the circuit breaker mechanically operates the MOC assembly to slide the drive plate in a direction that pivots the drive arm from a first position to a second position, the first and second positions of the drive arm being visible externally of the switchgear through the status indicator.

Abstract: A power breaking pole including a vacuum interrupter including two ends called a lower end and an upper end, respectively, which vacuum interrupter is held between two uprights, which are arranged symmetrically with respect to a main plane P of the vacuum interrupter, the vacuum interrupter being held in a centred manner between the two uprights solely by two connectors called a lower connector and an upper connector, respectively.

Abstract: A method for producing low- or medium-voltage electrical switchgear including an electrical component, at least one electrical connector connected electrically to the component and an enclosure delimiting a volume in which the component is received, in which the connector includes a body which passes through the enclosure, the method including a step of fitting a seal in a peripheral groove formed in the wall of the body and a step of injecting a plastic material around the body of the connector and around the seal, wherein the injection step consists in injecting the plastic material at a pressure causing an elastic crushing of the seal in the groove.

Abstract: A device is for guiding a spring belonging to a control mechanism. The device includes two elements capable of sliding relative to one another and being linked in an articulated manner respectively to two axes of which at least one is linked mechanically to an operating shaft, and a compression spring mounted around these two elements and bearing by its two opposing ends respectively on the abovementioned two axes via, respectively, two bases, each of its bases being mounted in an articulated manner relative to one of the abovementioned axes. This device includes two rods, each rod being fixed by one of its ends onto one of the abovementioned bases, and being mounted to slide by its opposite end, relative to the other of the abovementioned bases.
