PLUG-IN CIRCUIT BREAKER
A plug-in circuit breaker with an operating button that includes a button inner end inserted inside the circuit breaker and a button outer end. An indicator slot is arranged inside the operating button, an indicating hole is arranged on the button outer end. The plug-in circuit breaker further includes an indicating member slidably inserted inside the indicator slot and one end of which is provided with a make-contact indicating surface and a break-contact indicating surface. When the plug-in circuit breaker is in a break-contact state, the break-contact indicating surface is arranged opposite to the indicating hole, thus during pressing the operating button, the indicating member moves inside the indicator slot. After the make-contact state, the make-contact indicating surface is arranged opposite to the indicating hole. The indicating member is arranged inside the operating button to save space and to indicate the break-contact and make-contact state through the indicating hole.
MOLDED CASE CIRCUIT BREAKER WITH TERMINAL COVER HAVING EMBOSS GUIDES FOR CABLE BOX COVER ALIGNMENT AND FIXING
A molded case circuit breaker configured to protect its ports and cables is provided. The molded case circuit breaker comprises an electronic trip unit (ETU) including communication ports or a thermomagnetic trip unit (TMTU). The molded case circuit breaker further comprises a terminal cover configured to pass cables that connect to the communication ports of the ETU and pass the cables over lugs without touching the lugs. The molded case circuit breaker further comprises a cable box cover that protects the cables of the ETU from external harm. The terminal cover including an emboss fixture having emboss guides for alignment and fixing of the cable box cover. The electronic trip unit (ETU) or the thermomagnetic trip unit (TMTU) and the cable box cover are assembled with one or more screws. The cable box cover is prevented from falling after the one or more screws are taken out from the terminal cover regardless of how the circuit breaker is mounted.

Leakage protector
Disclosed herein is a leakage protector, which includes a housing. A base plate and a brush are arranged in the housing. A first conducting strip and a second conducting strip spaced apart are arranged on the base plate. The brush is provided with contact pins to contact the first conducting strip and the second conducting strip, respectively. The second conducting strip can generate different analog voltages, and the first conducting strip is configured to transmit different analog voltages to a microprocessor. A user can drive the brush to move through an actuating part, and set the power-on time of the leakage protector in one step.
