By avoiding such geometric constraints, there are further optional possibilities for the design of the circuit breaker. Furthermore, the appearance of the circuit breaker by missing fasteners (such as missing mounting holes, etc.) is much quieter. This contributes to the customer favor.
  • the use of the carrier plate according to the invention for carrying a circuit breaker accessory results in a number of advantages:
  • the space savings due to lack of attachment points on the circuit breaker expand the possibilities for using other system components.
  • the carrier plate allows e.g. the universal assembly of standard system components to be mounted on the front of the circuit-breaker, such as B. Kipphebelverriegelonne, Bowdenzugverriegelonne, Kipphebelblockiervorraumen, hand rotary drives or motor drives.
  • the attachment of such circuit breaker accessories in the immediate vicinity of the circuit breaker eg, the mounting of external accessories to a base plate on which the circuit breakers are mounted
  • the mounting of the circuit breaker accessories is much easier.
  • a carrier plate for supporting a circuit breaker accessory which can be mounted on two opposite side walls of the circuit breaker has been described.
  • circuit breaker accessories can be easily and reliably mounted to the circuit breaker.
