  • Maintenance grounding device in motor control center with integrated interlock system
    Patent number: 11984289
    Abstract: A motor control center includes an enclosure comprising an isolation switch, a main contactor device, and a ground switch device. The isolation switch is selectively manually operable between a connected state and a disconnected state. In the connected state the isolation switch is adapted to conduct electrical power from an associated power source to the main contactor device and wherein the isolation switch in the disconnected state interrupts conduction of electrical power from the associated power source to the main contactor device.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 17, 2022
    Date of Patent: May 14, 2024
    Assignee: Rockwell Automation Technologies, Inc.
    Inventors: Navinchandra Bhatt, Paul van Heeswyk, John Kay, Ashwin Baliga B
