A circuit breaker can include a moveable electrical contact configured to be moved between an open position and a closed position, and a lever assembly configured to prevent the progressive closing of the moveable electrical contact to the closed position such that the lever assembly is configured to cause snap action closing of the moveable electrical contact at a charged position of a motorized slider.

An arc quenching device creates a fault on a bus. A lockout mechanism of a circuit breaker feeding the bus is responsively actuated. Actuating the lockout mechanism may include releasing a spring-loaded mechanism mounted on a cassette that holds the circuit breaker to cause the mechanism to engage a lockout member of the circuit breaker.
