Abstract
A mounting device includes a switchgear, which is mounted thereon and which can, via plug contacts, be brought into contact with mating plug contacts of the mounting device. At least one first retaining device(s) holds the switchgear in a defined stationary position in which the plug contacts do not come in contact with the mating plug contacts.
Claims12
A mounting device including an electrical switchgear mounted thereon having an enclosure, the mounting device comprising:
- mating plug contacts, wherein the switchgear includes plug contacts;
- and
- at least one first locating device formed on the enclosure of the switchgear to hold the switchgear in a defined parked position, without the plug contacts making contact with the mating plug contacts, to isolate the switchgear both from a supply circuit and from a connected load wherein the plug contacts protrude from the enclosure of the switchgear.
A mounting device including an electrical switchgear mounted thereon having an enclosure, the mounting device comprising:
- mating plug contacts, wherein the switchgear includes plug contacts;
- at least one first locating device formed on the enclosure of the switchgear to hold the switchgear in a defined parked position, without the plug contacts making contact with the mating plug contacts, to isolate the switchgear both from a supply circuit and from a connected load;
- and
- at least one second locating device to hold the switchgear in a defined contact position, in which the plug contacts make contact with the mating plug contacts, wherein the contact position is only reachable after passing through the parked position and wherein the at least one second locating device is designed as at least one second latching device, wherein
- the at least one first locating device is designed as at least one first latching device to mutually latch between the switchgear and the mounting device.
A mounting device including an electrical switchgear mounted thereon having an enclosure, the mounting device comprising:
- mating plug contacts, wherein the switchgear includes plug contacts;
- and
- at least one first locating device formed on the enclosure of the switchgear to hold the switchgear in a defined parked position, without the plug contacts making contact with the mating plug contacts, to isolate the switchgear both from a supply circuit and from a connected load, wherein the plug contacts and the mating plug contacts are arranged and orientated to make contact by the plug-in movement being substantially at right angles to a rear wall of the switchgear.
