Abstract: A sealed plug-in circuit breaker panel has an enclosure defining a sealed interior portion. The enclosure includes a housing, a face plate removably coupled to the housing and a front seal member disposed between the face plate and the housing such that the face plate and the housing are sealingly engaged. The panel further includes an electrical bus structure coupled to the housing, a plurality of first plug-in members coupled to the bus structure and a number of circuit breakers disposed in the enclosure. Each circuit breaker includes a manual operator and at least a pair of second plug-in members which are electrically coupled to corresponding first plug-in members. The manual operator protrudes through and extends from a respective aperture formed in the face plate. The panel further includes a number of feeders and load connectors electrically coupled to the bus structure.

Abstract: A circuit breaker module is provided. The circuit breaker module includes: a frame assembly, a faceplate assembly, and a number of circuit breakers, the circuit breakers having an electrically conductive surface and an extending handle, the frame assembly having a front member and a back member, the frame assembly front member and the frame assembly back member being spaced from each other and defining an enclosed space, the frame assembly front member being electrically conductive, the faceplate assembly having an electrically conductive faceplate, the faceplate being a planar member with a number of openings therein, the faceplate coupled to the frame assembly front member, the circuit breaker disposed in the frame assembly enclosed space, and wherein the circuit breaker is in electrical communication with the faceplate and the frame assembly front member, whereby a current may pass from the circuit breaker to the frame assembly front member.

Abstract: A connector assembly (10) includes a non-conductive block assembly (12) defining a plurality of passages (20) and a resilient wire support (14) defining a plurality of passages (66). The resilient wire support (14) is coupled to the block assembly (12) with each resilient wire support passage (66) aligned with one block assembly passage (20). A conductor unit includes a plurality of conductor assemblies (80). Each conductor assembly (80) includes a first socket (90) and a second socket (94), and each such conductor assembly (80) is disposed partially in a block assembly passage (20).

Abstract: A circuit breaker assembly includes a housing, an electrical bus structure within the housing, a number of first plug-in members coupled to the bus structure, and a number of insulative retainers coupled to the bus structure. A corresponding one of the number of insulative retainers is operatively associated with a corresponding number of the number of first plug-in members. Each of a number of circuit breakers includes a manual operator and a number of second plug-in members disposed opposite the manual operator. The number of second plug-in members electrically engage a number of the number of first plug-in members. The corresponding one of the number of insulative retainers is disposed about the corresponding number of the number of first plug-in members, in order to insulate the corresponding number of the number of first plug-in members, and to retain the number of second plug-in members.

Abstract: A face plate (18) for use in a panel (2) for electrical switching apparatus includes a generally planar member (19) having a first surface (20), an opposite second surface (22) and a number of apertures (24) disposed through the first surface and the opposite second surface. Each aperture is configured to receive an actuatable mechanism (14) of an electrical switching apparatus (10). The faceplate further includes a number of inclined features (28), each extending from the opposite second surface (22) about a respective aperture (24) of the number of apertures. At least one inclined feature (28) includes an inclined surface (30) disposed opposite the opposite second surface (22) of the generally planar member (19). The inclined surface (30) is disposed at a non-zero angle (?1) with respect to the generally planar member (19).
