Abstract: A circuit breaker is disclosed. The circuit breaker has a single pole module housing having a 1 W width with a first conduction path and a second conduction path disposed within the single pole module housing. The first and second conduction paths are electrically isolated from each other via an interior wall of the single pole module housing. A first activation mechanism is in operable communication with the first conduction path and a second activation mechanism is in operable communication with the second conduction path. The first activation mechanism is in operable communication with the first conduction path independent of the second activation mechanism and the second conduction path. The second activation mechanism is in operable communication with the second conduction path independent of the first activation mechanism and the first conduction path.

Abstract: An interface module is configured for transmitting a status change signal between a first circuit device that has a first circuit device couple and a second circuit device that has a second circuit device couple. The interface module may include a housing, a first coupling assembly that includes a first couple arm and a second coupling assembly that includes a second couple arm. Each of the first and second couple arms extends through the housing at a location that is spaced from the other and each of the first and second coupling assemblies is movable by the first circuit device couple and/or the second circuit device couple to transmit a status change signal there between.

Abstract: A housing for a single-pole circuit breaker is disclosed. The housing includes two current path regions, each region having a first section configured to receive an electromagnetic protection device, a second section configured to receive a thermal protection device, a third section configured to receive an arc extinguishing device, and a fourth section configured to receive an operating mechanism device. Each first section occupies a substantial part of the available internal width of the housing, and is disposed between the respective third and fourth sections. Each second section occupies about half the available internal width of the housing.
