Abstract: A monitoring-and-control drawer for an electrical enclosure is connected to an electricity source and to an electrical load and is linked to at least one communication interface allowing the drawer to be supplied with power or to communicate with an industrial computer. The monitoring-and-control drawer is mobile within the enclosure between three main positions: a disconnected position, a test position, and an operating position. At least one lateral structure comprises a mobile lateral contact (352) comprising electrical contacts (436) which, during the movement of the drawer between the test position and the operating position, are fixed with respect to a communication interface and connect the drawer to this interface.

Abstract: An electromagnetic actuator has: an armature carrying at least one coil; a ferromagnetic yoke configured to channel a magnetic flux created by the coil; and a ferromagnetic moving part that interacts with the yoke to form a magnetic circuit formed at least in part by an assembly of laminated metal plates, the moving part being configured to move in relation to the armature under the action of the magnetic field generated by the coil. The actuator moreover has an auxiliary magnetic circuit made of electrically conductive material, in order to permit the flow of currents induced in the auxiliary magnetic circuit when a magnetic field is generated by the coil.
