A protection system for an electrical apparatus is disclosed. The protection system includes a baffle assembly and a coating for electrical elements exposed to arc gasses. The baffle assembly includes a number of generally planar sidewalls, each sidewall including a first edge surface, a second edge surface, and a third edge surface. The sidewalls are disposed in a spaced, generally parallel configuration defining a number of channels. A first end wall, is sealingly coupled to each sidewall first edge. A second end wall is sealingly coupled to each sidewall second edge. A third end wall is sealingly coupled to each sidewall third edge. The terminals of an electrical apparatus are disposed in an aligned set with one set of terminals in each channel. The channels are structured to limit the flow of arc gasses across adjacent sets of terminals.
A baffle assembly for an electrical apparatus, said electrical apparatus including a number of electrical components and a conductor assembly, said electrical components including a number of terminals, said electrical component terminals disposed in a plurality of aligned sets, said conductor assembly including a number of conductors, said conductors extending laterally over a number of aligned sets, said baffle assembly comprising:
