Abstract: A tamper protection device for an electrical switching device including a housing and a panel for at least one control element. The tamper protection device a protection cap configured to prevent unwanted operation or tampering of the control element when in position on the housing and a seal retainer configured to block the protection cap from being removed from the covering position when the seal retainer and protection cap are connected by a secured seal wire thereby forming a sealed unit. Each of the protection cap and the seal retainer are releasably connectable to the housing. When the protection cap and seal retainer are secured as the sealed unit it is non-releasably connectable to the housing by an interlocking connection.

Abstract: An overload relay comprising three modules, each enclosed in molded housings: the basic unit, the contactor-side terminal block and the load-side terminal block. Both terminal blocks have phase connectors which can be the same or different in terms of their type of connection and/or their clearance between phases and/or their phase height. The terminal blocks can be mechanically and electrically detachably connected to the basic unit. At least the basic unit or the terminal blocks have means for fastening to a mounting plate. In an additional solution, the terminal blocks are part of a series which is compatible with at least two different contactors. A typical field of application for the invention is the protection of electric motors.
