Abstract
A central module for a three-phase electrical switching device, comprising a central plinth intended to bear a central switch module and a front face comprising control/command members for the switching device. The central plinth comprises rear fixing means capable of fixing a rear plinth intended to bear two rear switch modules, lateral fixing means capable of fixing two lateral plinths intended to each bear a lateral switch module, an actuation mechanism intended to actuate a central switch module, and means for transmitting movements of the actuation mechanism toward the rear plinth and the lateral plinths to be able to actuate the rear and lateral switch modules. A three-phase electrical switching device comprising such a central module is also disclosed.
Claims12
A central module for a three-phase electrical switching device, the central module comprising a central plinth intended to support a central switch module and a front face comprising control/command members for the switching device, wherein the central plinth comprises:
- rear fixing means placed at a rear of the central plinth and capable of fixing, removably to the central module, a rear plinth intended to bear two rear switch modules,
- lateral fixing means placed on each side of the central plinth and capable of fixing, removably to the central module, two lateral plinths intended to each bear a lateral switch module,
- an actuation mechanism intended to actuate the central switch module of the switching device, and
- means for transmitting movements of the actuation mechanism to the rear plinth and side plinths when the rear plinth and the side plinths are fixed to the central module, to be able to actuate other switch modules of the switching device.
