A load selector has a load changeover switch insert with a switching tube rotatable about an axis, at least one switching segment fastened to the switching tube, and at least two vacuum interrupters in the at least one switching segment. Each vacuum interrupter has a switching tube having a respective axially movable contact that cooperates at its free end with an actuating lever. The vacuum interrupters are so arranged in alternation in opposite sense that the movable contacts of the at least two vacuum interrupters are movable with respect to the axis alternately in opposite directions.

Rotary switches and associated methods. A rotary switch can include one or more arcuate passages which are prone to ingress of particulate or liquid contaminants. A gasket, a rib, and/or a lubricant reservoir can be provided in the arcuate passages for blocking ingress of contaminants to an interior of the switch.

The invention relates to an electric motor-operated on-load tap changer (1) comprising an emergency drive. An electric motor (3) and a power store (13) of said on-load tap changer (1) are mechanically coupled by means of a gear (5) that is provided with a gear housing (90). The gear (5) comprises a gear shaft (61) on which a toothing (55) is designed. For manual emergency operation, the claimed gear shaft (61) has an extension (62) which comprises a free end (65) for attaching a tool (95). The invention also relates to a method for adjusting a defined switching position of an on-load tap changer (1) when in an emergency operation mode.

A steering wheel input device includes a first steering switch disposed on a front face of a steering wheel and a second steering switch disposed on a rear face of the steering wheel. When the second steering switch is operated, an icon corresponding to the second steering switch is displayed on the first steering switch. The steering wheel input device allows various operations to be implemented. Furthermore, an operator can intuitively operate the steering wheel input device.

An assembly device is disclosed for fixing a molded case circuit breaker, including a housing with at least one screw hole for a fixation screw for fixing the molded case circuit breaker to a bus bar. The assembly device includes a screw head holding device for holding a screw head of the fixation screw, the assembly device being configured to be arranged inside a cavity of the housing of the molded case circuit breaker in such a way that a screw head of a fixation screw arranged at the screw hole for mounting the molded case circuit breaker to the bus bar is engageable with the screw head holding device in an engagement direction. Furthermore, a circuit breaker system is disclosed including a molded case circuit breaker and an assembly device. Moreover, a method is disclosed for mounting a molded case circuit breaker to a bus bar.

A circuit breaker includes an electrically insulative case including a first end and a second end opposite the first end. The circuit breaker further includes an end cover selectively installable on both the first and second ends of the electrically insulative case. The end cover includes a wall defining at least one opening for receiving a removable shield, a first end connectable to the electrically insulative case first end, and a second end connectable to the electrically insulative case second end.

An operating member includes: a body portion; an operating portion connected to the body portion; an engaging portion arranged in the body portion; an engaged portion arranged in the operating portion, and engaged with the engaging portion to connect the body portion and the operating portion; a piece portion arranged in a back surface portion of the operating portion and protruding toward the body portion; a piece-portion hole arranged in the body portion, into which the piece portion is inserted; and a protruding portion made of an elastic material, arranged in the piece portion, protruding from a side of the piece portion, and press-contacting an edge portion of the piece-portion hole when the piece portion is inserted into the piece-portion hole.

Disclosed is a molded case circuit breaker including a case configured to accommodate an element for trip, an upper cover detachable attached to the case, a dial configured to include a fixing plate, which is provided to protrude along an outer circumference surface thereof, and a first stopper disposed under the fixing plate, a crossbar moved by the dial, a first dial fitting hole provided in the upper cover for the dial to be fitted into the first dial fitting hole, and a dial rotation adjusting unit provided in the first dial fitting hole and fitted between the fixing plate and the first stopper to guide a rotation of the dial, the dial rotation adjusting unit including a plurality of fitting grooves arranged at certain intervals. The first stopper is fitted into and fixed to the plurality of fitting grooves according to the rotation of the dial.

Various embodiments of a compression activated switch device for holding light emitting packages are provided. The device includes an electrical switch configured to operatively couple between a light emitting package and a power source. The light emitting package includes a light emitting element on a support, the electrical switch biased to an open position from a closed position. The compression activated switch also includes a coupling component configured to couple the light emitting package to a structure and a biasing element biasing against coupling the light emitting package to the structure with a predetermined force, wherein in response to a force being applied to the coupling component sufficient to overcome the predetermined force the electric switch moves to the closed position. Visual or audible feedback may be provided upon the application of the predetermined amount of force.
