Electrical switching apparatus including transductor circuit and alternating current electronic trip circuit

An electrical switching apparatus comprising:

• a plurality of first terminals including two input terminals structured to electrically connect to a direct current power source;
• a plurality of second terminals including two output terminals structured to electrically connect to a direct current load;
• a plurality of pairs of separable contacts;
• a plurality of conductors that electrically connect each pair of separable contacts between one of said first terminals and one of said second terminals;
• a plurality of jumpers, each of said plurality of jumpers electrically connecting two pairs of said separable contacts in series, each of said plurality of jumpers being electrically connected to:
• (a) one of said first terminals and one of said second terminals;
• or (b) two of said first terminals or two of said second terminals;
• a transductor circuit that senses a direct current between at least one of the input terminals and at least one of the output terminals and outputs an alternating current proportional to the direct current, the transductor circuit including a first current transformer having a secondary winding including a first end and a second end and being inductively coupled with a first conductor of the plurality of conductors, and a second current transformer having a secondary winding including a first end and a second end and being inductively coupled with a second conductor of the plurality of conductors;
• a configuration plug set including a plurality of configuration plugs electrically connectable between the secondary windings of the first current transformer and the second current transformer, the plurality of configuration plugs including a first configuration plug which electrically connects the second end of the first current transformer to the second end of the second current transformer and a second configuration plug which electrically connects the second end of the first current transformer to the first end of the second current transformer;
• and
• an alternating current electronic trip circuit configured to control the plurality of pairs of separable contacts to separate based on the alternating current output from the transductor circuit.
