Abstract: A tree stand platform support comprises a post comprising a first plate portion, a second plate portion parallel to the first plate portion and an intermediate open celled web portion interconnecting and extending perpendicular to the first plate portion and the second plate portion. The intermediate open celled web portion has cell walls forming cell openings through the intermediate open celled web portion.

Abstract: A recloser for use with an electrical power distribution system including a circuit interrupter including a primary contact and a movable contact movable relative to the primary contact between a closed position allowing current to pass through the circuit interrupter and an open position separating the contacts and preventing current from passing through the circuit interrupter. An actuator is coupled to the circuit interrupter. The actuator includes a movable shaft coupled to the movable contact of the circuit interrupter for substantially simultaneous movement therewith and without insulation being disposed between the movable contact and the movable shaft. An electronic control is electrically connected to the actuator.

Abstract: An electrical assembly includes an electrical component contained within a housing and surrounded by a dielectric electrical insulating material. The dielectric material fills the space between the electrical component and the housing to eliminate air gaps or spaces and to surround the electrical component. The dielectric material is formed from a curable resin composition that includes a base resin, such as an epoxy resin, a flexibilizing agent, a curing agent and an amount of a resilient and compressible filler. The resilient and compressible filler is particles of thermoplastic microballoons having a particle size of about 90 microns to about 110 microns.

Abstract: A circuit interrupting device for use with an electrical power distribution system including a circuit interrupter having a closed position allowing current to pass through the circuit interrupter and an open position preventing current from passing through the circuit interrupter. An actuator is electrically and mechanically coupled to the circuit interrupter. The actuator moves the circuit interrupter between the closed and open positions upon occurrence of a fault current. First and second terminals are electrically connected to the circuit interrupter and are adapted for electrical connection to the power distribution system, defining a current path between the first terminal, the circuit interrupter, and the second terminal, allowing current of the power distribution system to pass through the current path so that the potential of the circuit interrupter is the same as the potential of the power distribution system.

Abstract: A fuse cutout for connection to a power source includes a mounting having upper and lower support members extending from opposing ends of the mounting. The upper support member includes a first contact having opposing first and second end portions, with the first end portion being attached to the upper support member, and a dome portion disposed between the first and second end portions. The dome portion includes opposing first and second dome surfaces and a first ridge extending along the second dome surface. A holder member is fixedly attached to the lower support member of the mounting. A pivot member is received in the holder member at a first pivot point, the pivot member being movable between first and second positions. A fuseholder is movable between closed and open positions and has upper and lower ends. The lower end is pivotally coupled to the pivot member at a second pivot point.
