  • Patent number: 8804372
    Abstract: An improved electrical disconnect apparatus includes a set of spaced apart conductors and a removable conductive element that is structured to extend between the conductors and to complete at least a portion of an electrical circuit that includes the conductors. The electrical disconnect apparatus is situated between an electrical network and a network protector. The conductors and the conductive element which extends therebetween are situated within the interior of a support that is sealed in order to permit the electrical disconnect apparatus to be in a submerged environment during use. The conductive element is retained by a key interlock wherein the key that enables removal of the conductive element is stored on the network protector and is only made available to the technician when the network protector has been switched to an OFF condition.
