Abstract

See full text

A substitute for the traditional single piece fixed contact/jaw member on a line-side of a miniature circuit breaker includes a line-side jaw member (e.g., a clip), a flexible conductor (e.g., braided wire), and a line-side contact. The line-side jaw member uses any springy metal or plastic for the clip function and inside the jaw member is the flexible conductor acting as a conductor (e.g., electrically connecting the circuit breaker to a busbar). The flexible conductor leads to the line-side contact. Such an arrangement can save on conductive metal in a circuit breaker. Additionally, the flexible conductor may provide better and more contact points for conduction.
