Abstract: The application relates to certain embodiments of an improved insulating support assembly for a circuit breaker. One embodiment comprises a strut and two metallic shields. The strut comprises an elongated main body and two metallic inserts. The main body is continuously curved from one end to the other end of the main body, each end of the main body being configured to face a radial direction of its component, the main body being configured to be in a same plane as a plane containing both radial directions of the components; each metallic shield is configured to be assembled to its respective end of the main body through its respective metallic insert and affixed to an outer surface of its respective component with fixing elements, each metallic shield having a C-shaped profile shaped to accommodate the outer surface of its respective component.

Abstract: Insulating support assembly (12; 22) for providing mechanical support and electrical insulation between two components (1; 2) of a circuit breaker (100). It comprises a strut (120; 122) and two metallic shields (15). The strut comprises an elongated main body (3) and two metallic inserts. The main body is continuously curved from one end to the other end of the main body, each end of the main body being configured to face a radial direction of its component, the main body being configured to be in a same plane as a plane containing both radial directions of the components; each metallic shield is configured to be assembled to its respective end of the main body through its respective metallic insert and affixed to an outer surface of its respective component with fixing elements, each metallic shield having a C-shaped profile shaped to accommodate the outer surface of its respective component.
