Claims9
A method for mounting a contact slide unit for a switching unit having a contact slide with a movable switching piece having two protrusions arranged in a mirror-inverted manner opposite one another and guided therein, the method comprising:
- introducing the movable switching piece obliquely between lateral guides of the contact slide;
- straightening up the movable switching piece on feet of the contact slide;
- introducing a rotation prevention device into an opening in the contact slide;
- and
- aligning the rotation prevention device with the movable switching piece in the contact slide to bear against the two protrusions of the movable switching piece after the rotation prevention device is rotated to its final mounting position;
- wherein the rotation prevention device is configured in a U-shaped manner with a support plate as a central region with two guide webs arranged laterally thereon.
