Abstract: The present invention provides an interior assembly for an electrical distribution device having a fuse for each phase in a circuit. The interior assembly includes a plurality of modules having an operating mechanism for opening and closing a switch contact. The switch contact is connected to each fuse and phase of the circuit. Each module has a housing and a mechanism for demountably securing one of the modules to at least one adjacent module. The securing mechanism is manually operated and integrally formed with the housing of each module. The present invention also provides a method of assembling the interior assembly of an electrical distribution device having a fuse for each phase in a circuit. The step of the method includes manually and demountably affixing a plurality of modules to one another without discrete fasteners. The plurality of modules have an operating mechanism for opening and closing a switch contact. The switch contact is connected to each fuse and phase of the circuit.

Abstract: An electrical distribution load center consists of a non-conductive enclosure and a circuit breaker bus bar support panel that are interconnected by interlock members that can be snap-fitted to secure the two panels to each other. The support panel also has a latch member so that the bus bars can be mounted onto the panel in a heat-staking, insert-molded or snap-fit arrangement. The support panel also has elements for locking the circuit breakers onto the panels in conducting contact with the bus bars. The enclosure and the support panel are enclosed by a non-metallic trim panel that has a non-metallic door hinged thereto and which carries a latch for latching the door to the trim panel.
