Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods are described for providing event indication. The system includes a protection device, an event indicator associated with the protection device, including a housing having an opening; a translation member configured to extend at least partially through the opening, and a detection section configured to generate a position signal based at least in part upon a position of the translation member, and a connector section configured to transmit the position signal. The system further includes an external device communicatively coupleable to the connector section to obtain the position signal.

Abstract: A circuit breaker includes a base holding an ampoule assembly, a mechanical cover that fits on the base, and a trim cover which fits on the mechanical cover. The circuit breaker can include cover supports positioned between the ampoule assembly and the base. The cover support includes a coupling member that fits within receiving apertures of the mechanical cover and has a threaded through-channel which aligns with apertures of the trim cover. Screws inserted through the trim cover are received in the through-channel to secure the trim cover, the mechanical cover and the base together. The mechanical cover and the base can have interlocking mechanisms which snap-fit together to further support coupling of the cover and base. The circuit breaker can incorporate a retainer clip which engages an ampoule pin, wherein the clip mounts to the mechanical cover to further support holding of the cover and base together.
