The present disclosure provides a plug interlock device for a circuit breaker, comprising: a lever-type withdrawable interlock assembly provided at a transfer car so that inputting and withdrawal of a breaker main body can be locked; a plug connector assembly, which rises/lowers in response to insertion or separation of a control line plug into or from a connector provided at the upper part of the breaker main body; a shaft, which rotates in different directions according to the elevation of the plug connector assembly by connecting one side thereof to the lower end of the plug connector assembly; and a blocking plate connected to the other side of the shaft so as to lock or unlock the operation of the lever-type withdrawable interlock assembly while horizontally moving according to the rotation of the shaft.

Cradle-assist assemblies attached to the breaker cradle housing and/or base or residing at least partially in the breaker cradle housing and/or base include at least one actuator configured to laterally translate the at least one right and the at least one left lock members from the extended lock position to the retracted unlocked position in response to input from a user. The at least one actuator and/or transverse member(s) can be held in a defined position so that the lock members of the cradle can be locked in the respective retracted or extended positions until the cradle assist (internal) lock is manually or automatically released.

An operating modes selector is for an earthing switch that includes power contacts and a motor for moving the power contacts. The selector includes a plurality of positions corresponding respectively to various operating modes of the earthing switch, and includes cams whose positions are defined by the selector position. The selector contains a first cam which pulls a first locking organ designed to mechanically block the motor of the earthing switch when the selector is in a position corresponding to a locked closed mode wherein the earthing switch is closed.

A switchgear system includes a switchgear frame and a truck carrying a circuit breaker, which includes a breaker housing, a fixed electrical contact and a movable electrical contact mounted within the breaker housing, an actuator piston connected to the movable electrical contact, and a drive assembly coupled to the actuator piston. A sensor circuit is mounted on the switchgear frame under the truck and aligned with the circuit breaker and configured to acquire displacement data of the actuator piston when in a contact testing position. A controller is coupled to the sensor circuit and configured to receive the displacement data and determine electrical contact erosion within the circuit breaker.
