Abstract
An electrical equipment includes easily separable components, where, in particular, the electrical connections are immobilised by screws in a body, and can be extracted by a simple translational movement when the screws have been removed. The active part can also easily extractable. When combined with the fabrication of an outer body made of thermoplastic material, these features, allowing for easy disassembly, make it possible to easily recycle the equipment, which may be a circuit breaker, a switch, etc.
