MULTIFUNCTIONAL CONNECTION SYSTEMS FOR VARIOUS DEVICES AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
A connector including a first connector side having a first rotatable connector mechanism and a second connector side having a second rotatable connector mechanism, the first rotatable connector mechanism and the second rotatable connector mechanism being configured to engage one another when the first connector side and the second connector side abut one another at a first angular orientation, the first rotatable connector mechanism and the second rotatable connector mechanism being configured to disengage from one another when the first connector side and the second connector side are rotated away from the first angular orientation in at least a first direction.
ELECTRICAL CABINET SERVICE DOOR WITH INTEGRATED DEAD FRONT
In order to reduce service procedure time and labor costs, while increasing overall uptime, the electrical equipment cabinet of the invention includes a main service door that is integrated with the dead front. The dead front panel is fixed to and movable with the main service door, and therefore access to high voltage equipment situated behind the dead front is achieved by simply opening the main service door, without the need to first unlock and open the main service door and then unlock, open, and/or remove the dead front panel. Controls on the front side of the dead front are easily and safely accessible, when the main service door is closed, through a dead front control access door positioned within an opening of the main service door.

INTERLOCK SYSTEM FOR A LOW, MEDIUM OR HIGH VOLTAGE SWITCHGEAR
An interlock system for a low, medium or high voltage switchgear includes: a compartment; a door; a door handle; and a circuit breaker. The door permits access to an inside of the compartment. The door handle opens and closes the door. The circuit breaker is located in the compartment. The door handle is movable from a closed position to an open position. When the door handle is in the closed position, the door does not to open, and when the door handle is in the open position, the door opens. A movement of the door handle from the closed position to the open position places the circuit breaker in a locked configuration. In the

MOTOR CONTROL CENTER
A motor control center (MCC) includes a cabinet, a bus located within the cabinet, a partition vertically partitioning the inside of the cabinet, and an MCC unit located on the partition and including a clip connected to the bus, a first guide located on a lower surface of the MCC unit and having a protrusion part, and a second guide located on an upper surface of the partition and slidably guiding the first guide in a forward/backward direction, wherein the second guide has rise limiting parts limiting rise of the protrusion part in order to limit rise of the first guide, and thus, separation of the MCC unit is minimized, and since the MCC unit is mounted in a normal position, high reliability is obtained.
