Carriage Position Switch
Available as an option for mounting within the
base of the cassette/substructure, the carriage
position switch provides six single-pole changeover
contacts for local or remote electrical indication of
the circuit breaker status: CONNECTED, TEST and
DISCONNECTED. The DISCONNECTED position is
indicated only when minimum isolating distances
between contacts on both the main and auxiliary
circuits have been achieved. This option is in addi-
tion to the mechanical indicators, which are fitted
as standard. When installed, the carriage switch is
IP2X protected and includes wiring to a terminal
block located on the left side of the cassette.

Mechanical Interlocks (Cable/Rod)
Available for fixed and draw-out circuit breakers,
these units enable the direct interlocking of
EntelliGuard G circuit breakers, either mounted
side-by-side or stacked. The interlocking mechanisms
are connected by a specially designed cable or rod
in a 1 from 2, 1 from 3, and 2 from 3 configuration,
and any mix of current ratings / pole configurations
can be accommodated. Standard cable lengths
available: 1.0, 1.6, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5 and 4.0 meters.
(Please contact our technical customer service
department if longer length is required.)
Mechanical interlocks can be fitted to electrical
systems as shown in Table 4.14 and can link 2
and/or 3 circuit breakers. Any nominal rating,
frame size, number of poles or type (fixed pattern
Cat. No.
or draw-out) can be interlocked.
