Abstract
A trip for electrical switching device including a protective housing, first electrical connection terminals, and a supply module including at least one transformer and second input and output terminals able to be connected to the first connection terminals according to a direction of connection. The supply module is able to generate a supply voltage on the basis of an input voltage received between the second input terminals and to deliver the supply voltage between the second output terminals. The supply module is movable with respect to the protective housing.
Claims18
A trip comprising:
- a protective housing;
- first electrical connection terminals;
- and
- a supply module comprising at least one transformer and second input and output terminals configured to be connected to the first electrical connection terminals according to a direction of connection,
- the supply module being configured to generate a supply voltage on the basis of an input voltage received between the second input terminals and to deliver the supply voltage between the second output terminals,
- wherein the supply module is moveable with respect to the protective housing,
- wherein the supply module further comprises a latch movable between a latched position and an unlatched position for latching the supply module in a connected position, and
- wherein the supply module comprises a projection to engage with the housing at a first opening contained within a planar wall of the housing at a first position where the first electric connection terminals and second input and output terminals are connected and engage with the housing at a second opening contained within the planar wall of the housing at a second position where the first electric connection terminals and second input and output terminals are disconnected.
A trip comprising:
- a protective housing;
- first electrical connection terminals;
- and
- a supply module comprising at least one transformer and second input and output terminals configured to be connected to the first electrical connection terminals according to a direction of connection,
- the supply module being configured to generate a supply voltage on the basis of an input voltage received between the second input terminals and to deliver the supply voltage between the second output terminals,
- wherein the supply module is moveable with respect to the protective housing,
- wherein the supply module further comprises a stop moveable between a stop position preventing the supply module from being withdrawn from the protective housing and a free position allowing the supply module to be withdrawn from the protective housing,
- wherein the supply module comprises a projection to engage with the housing at a first opening in the housing at a first position where the first electric connection terminals and second input and output terminals are connected and engage with the housing at a second opening in the housing at a second position where the first electric connection terminals and second input and output terminals are disconnected, and
- the stop is configured to engage with the second opening to prevent the supply module from being withdrawn from the protective housing.
A trip comprising:
- a protective housing;
- first electrical connection terminals;
- and
- a supply module comprising at least one transformer and second input and output terminals configured to be connected to the first electrical connection terminals according to a direction of connection,
- the supply module being configured to generate a supply voltage on the basis of an input voltage received between the second input terminals and to deliver the supply voltage between the second output terminals,
- wherein the supply module is moveable with respect to the protective housing,
- wherein the supply module further comprises a latch movable between a latched position and an unlatched position for latching the supply module in a connected position,
- wherein the supply module comprises a projection to engage with the housing at a first opening in the housing at a first position where the first electric connection terminals and second input and output terminals are connected and engage with the housing at a second opening in the housing at a second position where the first electric connection terminals and second input and output terminals are disconnected, and
- wherein the projection engages with the housing at the first opening by clip fastening and engages with the housing at the second by clip fastening.
