ELECTRICAL ENCLOSURE, AND SWITCHING ASSEMBLY AND TRANSFER ASSEMBLY THEREFOR
20170316892 · 2017-11-02 · ·

A transfer assembly is for a switching assembly of an electrical enclosure. The switching assembly includes an electrical switching apparatus having an operating handle structured to move from an OFF position to an ON position. The transfer assembly includes a driving handle; a first shaft member coupled to the driving handle; a second shaft member structured to be coupled to the operating handle; and a transmission assembly having a first component and a second component, the first component being coupled to the first shaft member, the second component being coupled to the second shaft member. The transfer assembly is structured to move from a FIRST position to a SECOND position. When the transfer assembly moves from the FIRST position to the SECOND position, the first component drives the second component, thereby causing the second shaft member to move the operating handle from the OFF position to the ON position.

Switch device

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.
