Latching handle mechanism for securing a module

A latching handle mechanism for securing a module containing a circuit interrupter to a structure, comprising:

• a handle frame;
• lever means mounted at said handle frame to rotate between a secured position and a released position for securing and releasing said module at said structure;
• and
• a shuttle means mounted at said handle frame and adapted to connect mechanically to said circuit interrupter, said shuttle means being mounted to reciprocate between an engaged and disengaged position in order to operate said circuit interrupter, said shuttle means being manually reciprocatable to operate said circuit interrupter when said lever means is in said secured position, said lever means being operable in said released position to restrain and prevent manual reciprocation of said shuttle means in order to prevent manual operation of said circuit interrupter, said lever means being operable when moved to said released position to drive said shuttle means to said disengaged position.
