Abstract

The overcurrent protection switch is provided by a combination switch using a pair of identical 2-pole overcurrent protection switches (1,2), connected in series and coupled together for common operation, each containing a pair of similar 1-pole switches (6-9) on either side of a partition wall (4,5). The moving parts of all switches are mechanically coupled for operation by a single overcurrent release.
