Up to three auxiliary switches can be mounted in one breaker .
Each switch has two normally open ("A") and two normally
closed ("B") contacts for a total of 12 available contacts .

Internal electrical accessories

Other electrical accessories are mounted inside the circuit
breaker . They can be factory or site installed . There are three
1
different internally mounted accessories:
1 . Overcurrent Trip Switch (Bell Alarm)

3 . Motor Operator
Overcurrent trip switch (bell alarm)
1
An overcurrent trip switch (bell alarm) is an optional device .
It provides an electrical indication when a circuit breaker trips
1
as a result of the trip unit reacting to an overcurrent condition .
Opening as a result of a circuit breaker's manual open button,
1
shunt trip, or undervoltage release does not cause the
overcurrent trip switch to operate .
1
The status of the contacts changes when the trip indicator
pops out . This permits the switch to be used as an alarm or
1
in conjunction with a spring release to block a subsequent
remote electrical closing signal . Refer to Section 3 for
available options .

Mechanical trip flag pop-out indicator
1
The mechanical trip flag pop-out indicator is an overcurrent
indication feature that can be supplied as an option on
1
Magnum breakers with integral trip units . This device is located
just above the trip unit on the breaker's front faceplate . In
the event the trip unit trips the breaker on an overcurrent
condition, the red trip flag releases and pops out to give local
visual indication . This trip indication is in addition to any LED
trip indication next to the protection feature .

The red flag can be reset by manually pushing it back in .
The breaker can be reclosed, even if the flag is not reset . An
optional Overcurrent Trip Switch (OTS) is available should an
electrical lockout be required on an overcurrent trip condition .
If the trip unit trips the breaker on an overcurrent condition:
Red mechanical trip flag indicator pops out
OTS contacts change state
The OTS Switch is reset by manually pushing in the red trip
flag . When the trip flag is reset, the OTS switch contacts
return to their normal state .

Motor operator
A motor operator is an electric motor assembly internally
mounted in the circuit breaker . It charges the closing springs
electrically for remote or local operation . It can be factory or
site installed . A UL Listed motor operator kit is available to
make the conversion from a manually operated breaker to an
electrically operated breaker .
