Methods, apparatuses and systems for providing a switching component are disclosed herein. An example switching component may comprise: a housing; a moveable carrier a moveable carrier disposed within the housing; at least one integrated moveable contact assembly, the moveable contact assembly comprising a substrate, a set of moveable contacts disposed on a first surface of the substrate and a guiding element surrounding at least a portion of the substrate, wherein at least a portion of the guiding element is configured to abut a surface of the moveable carrier; and a set of stationary contacts adjacent the set of moveable contacts, wherein the set of moveable contacts is configured to move with two degrees of freedom to make contact with the set of stationary contacts in order to actuate an electrical bridge in response to movement of the moveable carrier.

A circuit interrupting device includes an input conductor for electrically connecting to an external power supply, a load conductor for electrically connecting to a downstream load, a face conductor for electrically connecting to an external load, and a brush conductor in electrical communication with the input conductor and movable between a closed position and an open position. The brush conductor includes a second portion offset from a first portion such that a first terminal and a second terminal are positioned on separate planes. When the brush conductor is in the closed position, the first terminal contacts the load terminal and the second terminal contacts the face terminal to provide electrical communication between the input conductor, the load conductor, and the face conductor. When the brush conductor is in the open position, the first terminal is spaced apart from the load terminal and the second terminal is spaced apart from the face terminal.

Methods, apparatuses and systems for providing a switching component are disclosed herein. An example switching component may include: a housing, a moveable carrier disposed within the housing, a set of moveable contacts, wherein a central body of the set of moveable contacts is disposed flush between a first surface of the moveable carrier and a second surface of the moveable carrier, and a set of stationary contacts adjacent the set of moveable contacts, wherein the set of moveable contacts is configured to move with a degree of freedom to make contact with the set of stationary contacts in order to actuate an electrical bridge in response to movement of the moveable carrier.

An electrical contact system includes a pair of static contacts, a rotatable member disposed between the static contacts and rotatable about a rotation axis between a first position and a second position, and a movable contact mounted on and rotated with the rotatable member. A pair of opposite ends of the movable contact are in electrical contact with the static contacts when the rotatable member is rotated to the first position. The ends of the movable contact are separated from the static contacts when the rotatable member is rotated to the second position. The movable contact has a Z-shape and is slidably mounted on the rotatable member. The movable contact slides under a pushing force from a first static contact of the static contacts toward a second static contact of the static contacts to be in electrical contact with the second static contact.

A contact point device includes a first contactor, an oscillation supporting portion, and a second contactor. The first contactor has an outer side surface shaped in a column that surrounds a central axis. The oscillation supporting portion supports the first contactor to allow the central axis to oscillate. The second contactor is disposed opposite to the first contactor. One of the first contactor and the second contactor includes a plurality of first contact portions provided to surround the central axis on a plane perpendicular to the central axis, and the other includes a second contact portion provided to protrude toward a space surrounded by the plurality of the first contact portions. The second contact portion has a contact surface which is a curved surface exposed toward the space to surround the central axis.
