which leaf-spring mounted c ontacts are attached, is
attracted to the magnetic core upon energization of
the switch.
When the switch closes , the moving
contacts bridge two stationary c ontacts completing
the trip circuit.
Also, during the operation , two
fingers on the armature deflect a spring located on
the front of the switch which allows the operation
indicator target to drop.
A core screw accessible from the top of the
switch provides the adjustable pickup range.

desirabl e because the burden o f a low-range trip
coil is too heavy on the current transformer. One
