Monitoring-and-control drawer for electrical connection enclosure and electrical connection enclosure comprising such a monitoring-and-control drawer

Monitoring-and-control drawer for an electrical connection enclosure, the monitoring-and-control drawer being configured so as:

• to be electrically connected on the one hand to an electricity source and on the other hand to an electrical load;
• and
• to be linked to at least one communication interface allowing the monitoring-and-control drawer to be supplied with at least one auxiliary voltage or to communicate with:
• an industrial computer,
• potentially with the electricity source, and
• potentially with the electrical load,
• the monitoring-and-control drawer comprising two lateral structures that are configured to be inserted into rails of the electrical connection enclosure and allow the monitoring-and-control drawer to be mobile within the electrical enclosure in a transverse direction with respect to this enclosure,
• the monitoring-and-control drawer being mobile within the electrical connection enclosure between three main positions:
• a disconnected position of the monitoring-and-control drawer, in which the monitoring-and-control drawer is not connected to the electricity source or to the electrical load and in which the monitoring-and-control drawer is not linked to any communication interface,
• a test position of the monitoring-and-control drawer, in which the monitoring-and-control drawer is not connected to the electricity source or to the electrical load and in which the monitoring-and-control drawer is linked to each communication interface, and
• an operating position of the monitoring-and-control drawer, in which the monitoring-and-control drawer is connected to the electricity source and to the electrical load and in which the monitoring-and-control drawer is linked to each communication interface,
• wherein at least one lateral structure comprises a mobile lateral contact comprising electrical contacts which are configured so as, during the movement of the monitoring-and-control drawer between the test position and the operating position:
• to be fixed with respect to a communication interface;
• and
• to connect the monitoring-and-control drawer to this communication interface,
• wherein the electrical contacts of each mobile lateral contact are fixed with respect to the monitoring-and-control drawer and held in a rest position when the monitoring-and-control drawer is between its disconnected position and an engagement position of the monitoring-and-control drawer located between the disconnected position and the test position of the monitoring-and-control drawer, and wherein the electrical contacts of each mobile lateral contact are mobile along a longitudinal axis of the monitoring-and-control drawer with respect to the monitoring-and-control drawer and fixed with respect to the electrical connection enclosure when the monitoring-and-control drawer is between its engagement position and its operating position,
• wherein the electrical contacts of each mobile lateral contact are mobile along a transverse axis of the monitoring-and-control drawer between an inserted position with respect to the monitoring-and-control drawer when the monitoring-and-control drawer is in engagement position and an exerted position with respect to the monitoring-and-control drawer when the monitoring-and-control drawer is in test position, and wherein, during the movement of the monitoring-and-control drawer between the test position and the operating position, the electrical contacts of each mobile lateral contact are fixed along the transverse axis with respect to the monitoring-and-control drawer.
