The present disclosure relates to a molded case circuit breaker, and more particularly, to a contact unit of a molded case circuit breaker. A molded case circuit breaker according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may include a fixed contact; a movable contact rotatably provided on a shaft body to be brought into contact with or separated from the fixed contact; and an insulating barrier that enters between the fixed contact and the movable contact during interruption, wherein the insulating barrier is coupled to the movable contact to rotate along a circumferential surface of a shaft body.

An electrical switch. The electrical switch includes at least one fixed contact and a movable contact contacting the fixed contact. At least one shutter element is arranged to move in synchronism with the movable contact. The shutter element is positioned in an extended position between the fixed contact and the movable contact and in a contracted position outside the patch of the movable contact allowing the movable contact to turn from the open position to the closed position.

An electric motor is electrically commutated with the aid of circuitry, in which the phase current experiences a zero crossing at certain time points per motor phase. Owing to the inductive load portion, the time of said zero crossing of a phase current occurs at different times to the time of the zero crossing that would arise with purely ohmic loads. Without a faulty load condition, the time of said zero crossing is within an expected value range (e.g., expected time window) which can be determined by the circuitry, the ambient conditions and by diverse motor parameters. During occurrence of the a high-side and/or low-side phase connection, it is determined whether and when the current through the switched-on high-side of low-side switch becomes greater or smaller than a predeterminable threshold wherein said time measurement can extend over one or more PWM cycles.

A switchgear includes a first contact capable of reciprocating along a motion axis, and a second contact. The second contact includes a facing unit movable in a first direction from the first contact toward the second contact when the facing unit is pushed in by the first contact, a spaced unit spaced from the axis and urged in a direction toward the axis, and a regulating unit coupled to the facing unit. The spaced unit abuts on the regulating unit to restrict movement of the spaced unit in the direction toward the axis as the facing unit is located in the second direction. The spaced unit is released from abutment on the regulating unit to move in the direction toward the axis into abutment on the first contact as the facing unit moves in the first direction.
