Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Niederspannungs-Leistungsschalter (1) mit aus einem profilierten Halbzeug hergestellten Anschlußschienen, bei dem die Anschlußschienen (2; 3) so gestaltet sind, daß die Distanzstücke (12; 13; 14; 15) jeweils als einstückiges Teil in die Anschlußschienen (2; 3) integriert sind. Dabei ist der Querschnitt des stromtragenden Teiles jeder Anschlußschiene (2; 3)dem geforderten Bemessungsstrom des Niederspannungs-Leistungsschalters (1) entsprechend gewählt und die Abmessungen der Distanzstücke entsprechen der Differenz zwischen der Dicke der verwendeten Anschlußschienen (2;3) und der Größe der Durchtrittsöffnungen (10; 11).

Figure 00000001
The invention relates to a low-voltage circuit breaker (1) with connecting rails made from a profiled semifinished product, in which the connecting rails (2; 3) are designed in such a way that the spacers (12; 13; 14; 15) are each in one piece in the connecting rails (2; 3) are integrated. The cross section of the current-carrying part of each connecting rail (2; 3) is selected in accordance with the required rated current of the low-voltage circuit breaker (1) and the dimensions of the spacers correspond to the difference between the thickness of the connecting rails used (2; 3) and the size of the through openings (10; 11).
