A mechanism coupling structure of a molded-case circuit breaker according to an embodiment of the present disclosure including a shaft to one side of which a movable contactor is coupled, and on a part of which a rotating pinhole is formed in a penetrating manner; a base assembly into which the shaft is rotatably accommodated and coupled, a switch mechanism coupled to an upper portion of the base assembly and exposed with a first lower link and a second lower link at a lower side thereof, and a rotating pin coupled in a penetrating manner to the first lower link, second lower link and rotating pinhole may be provided therein, wherein the rotating pin has a protruding portion for release prevention at one end thereof.

A touch safe electrical panel (100) includes a bus (110) having a branch connector (130) with a vertical stab (132) and a touch safe connection assembly (150). The assembly includes a dielectric housing (152) for the stab. The housing (152) includes a slot (180) through which to receive the stab, and an opening (190), arranged away from the slot, through which to receive a terminal of a plug-on circuit breaker configured to engage the stab. A dielectric barrier (170A, 170B) is arranged in the housing between the slot and the opening. The barrier partially blocks a passage way between the opening and the slot to prevent direct user contact of the stab while enabling the terminal to pass through the partially blocked passage way and engage the stab.
