Protective device having a thin construction

An electrical wiring device:

• a housing including a front cover having a front major surface and a back body having a back major surface substantially parallel to the front major surface, an electrical isolating member being disposed between the front cover member and the back cover member so that a first interior region is formed between the front cover member and the electrical isolating member and a second interior region is formed between the back cover member and the electrically isolating member, a plurality of receptacle load terminals being disposed in the first interior region, a plurality of line terminals and a plurality of feed-through load terminals being at least partially disposed in the second interior region;
• a circuit interrupting assembly including a plurality of rocker contact elements pivotally coupled to the plurality of receptacle load terminals, the plurality of rocker contact elements being configured to perform a first rotational movement in response to a make-force in order to electrically connect the plurality of line terminals, the plurality of feed-through load terminals and the plurality of receptacle load terminals to effect a reset state, the plurality of rocker contact elements being configured to perform a second rotational movement in response to a break-force in order to decouple the plurality of line terminals, the plurality of feed-through load terminals and the plurality of receptacle load terminals to effect a tripped state;
• a reset assembly configured to provide the make-force, the reset assembly including a reset button accessible via the front major surface, the reset button being responsive to a user stimulus, the reset button also being mechanically coupled to the circuit interrupting assembly;
• and
• a protective electrical assembly substantially disposed inside the housing, the protective electrical assembly including a sensor assembly coupled between the plurality of line terminals and a fault detection circuit, the fault detection circuit being coupled to a solenoid assembly configured to provide a tripping stimulus, the solenoid assembly including a bobbin winding and the sensor assembly including at least one toroid.
