A circuit breaker is provided, which includes a cradle having a plurality of cradle terminals, and a breaker main body connected to the cradle and having a plurality of breaker terminals electrically connected to the plurality of cradle terminals, in which each of the plurality of breaker terminals includes a terminal body extended from the breaker main body and protruded toward each of the plurality of cradle terminals, contacts coupled to upper and lower portions of terminal body and disposed in parallel to face each other, and a contact protrusion protruded to a round shape in a direction which the contacts face each other such that, upon connection of the plurality of cradle terminals, the contact protrusion contacts and presses both sides of the connected cradle terminals.

A mechanical interlock assembly for a disconnector and an earthing switch. The mechanical interlock assembly comprises: a main interlock disc configured to actuate a movable contact of a disconnector, and at least one earthing switch interlock disc configured to actuate respective movable contact of at least one earthing switch respectively. The main interlock disc includes at least one first groove, and each of the at least one earthing switch interlock discs includes a third groove, and it is provided with a movable interlock pin between the main interlock disc and each earthing switch interlock disc respectively. The interlock assembly can interlock the disconnector and the at least one earthing switch, and has the advantages of a simple structure, low cost and flexibility for different arrangements. A further mechanical interlock assembly is also provided to interlock another disconnector and one of the above at least one earthing switch.

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a switch device, comprising: a first three-position switch; a second three-position switch disposed below the first three-position switch; a circuit breaker disposed between the first three-position switch and the second three-position switch. A first interlock unit is disposed above the circuit breaker and connected to the circuit breaker and the first three-position switch, and configured to block a manual operation of the first three-position switch in a closed state of the circuit breaker, and configured to block a manual closing operation of the circuit breaker while the first three-position switch is manually operated in an open state of the circuit breaker. A second interlock unit is disposed below the circuit breaker and connected to the circuit breaker and the second three-position switch, and is configured to block a manual operation of the second three-position switch in the closed state of the circuit breaker, and configured to block a manual closing operation of the circuit breaker while the second three-position switch is manually operated in the open state of the circuit breaker.

As described above, a withdrawable interlock device of a vacuum circuit breaker according to the present disclosure may locate the second lever between the link and the moving plate, and thus the second lever may be engaged with an outer side of the first lever in a state that the control power connector is coupled to the control power plug not to move the moving plate through the second lever so as to maintain a state that the fitting protrusion is fitted into the fitting groove, thereby having an effect of preventing the circuit breaker body from being separated to the outside of the cradle in a state that the control power connector is coupled to the control power plug to supply power.

A visible disconnect switch (VDS) interlock assembly is provided. The VDS interlock assembly is movable between a CBA, first lockout position, wherein a CBA second contact assembly cannot move when a VDS second contact assembly is in a first position, and a VDS, second lockout position, wherein a VDS second contact assembly cannot move when the CBA second contact assembly is in a second position. Further, the VDS interlock assembly is placed in an open position in between where the CBA, first lockout position and the VDS, second lockout position; from the open position the VDS interlock assembly may be moved into one of the CBA, first lockout position or the VDS, second lockout position.
