Definitions

  • the invention relates to an insulation device for covering a conductive contact element of an electro-mechanical protection switching device, in particular a circuit breaker, a residual current circuit breaker or a circuit breaker. Furthermore, the invention relates to an electromechanical protective switching device, which is designed in particular as a circuit breaker, as a residual current circuit breaker or as a circuit breaker and having at least one such isolation device.
  • Circuit breakers are used in particular as switching and safety elements in electrical energy supply networks.
  • Circuit breakers are specially designed for high currents.
  • a circuit breaker is an overcurrent protection device in the electrical installation and is used in particular in the field of low-voltage networks.
  • Circuit breakers and miniature circuit breakers guarantee a safe shutdown in the event of a short circuit and protect consumers and systems from overload. They also protect cables from damage due to excessive heating as a result of excessive electrical current.
  • a residual current circuit breaker is a protective device to ensure protection against a dangerous fault current in an electrical system.
  • a fault current which is also referred to as differential current, occurs when a live line part has an electrical contact with earth. This is for example the case when a person touches a live part of an electrical system: in this case, the current flows as a fault current through the body of the person concerned against the ground.
  • the electrical system quickly and safely disconnect all poles from the mains.
  • the terms residual current circuit breaker (RCD) or RCD (Residual Current Protective Device) are also used equivalently.
  • Circuit-breakers such as circuit breakers, miniature circuit breakers or residual current circuit breakers are designed to switch off the circuit automatically in the event of a short circuit, overload or fault current, thus disconnecting it from the mains.
  • they have a switching contact pair with a stationary switching contact and a switching contact which can be moved relative thereto, which is opened when necessary in order to interrupt the flow of current.
  • these devices For electrical contacting with one or more external connection conductors, these devices have one or a plurality of connection terminals into which the connection conductor can be inserted. By pressing a corresponding clamping screw, the connection conductor can be securely clamped, so that the protective switching device is securely connected to the electrical connection conductor.
  • the insulation device according to the invention is provided to cover a conductive contact element of an electro-mechanical protection device, in particular a circuit breaker, a residual current circuit breaker or a circuit breaker, wherein the conductive contact element is arranged behind a housing opening of the protective device.
  • the insulation device has a main body, which can be fastened to a housing of the protective switching device and has an opening for passing at least one electrical connection line.
  • the opening is divided by a web into two partial openings, wherein a connecting line can be passed through each of the partial openings, so that in the mounted state of the insulation device on the protective switching device, a manual contact of the contact element is excluded.
  • the insulation device if national safety requirements - for example, with regard to the creepage distances and creepage distances to be complied with - require this, be attached to a protective switching device in the region of the electrical connection terminal.
  • the opening of the isolation device is divided by the web into two partial openings, which in turn are dimensioned too small than that a manual contact of the behind arranged contact element would be possible.
  • the term "manual contact” is understood to mean a contact of the electrically conductive contact element with the fingers through the partial openings. Unintentional contact with a contact element, for example The terminal, the pressure piece or the contact is thus effectively prevented, so that with the help of the insulation device, a reliable protection against electric shock can be realized.
  • the web is integrally connected to the base body. Due to the one-piece embodiment of the base body with the web no time-consuming assembly is required, which is why the isolation device is relatively inexpensive to produce.
  • the web is designed as a thin-walled hollow profile. A thin-walled design of the web as a hollow profile allows easier mounting of the connection conductor to the protection device. In addition, a thin-walled hollow profile has a greater elasticity, whereby fluctuations in the manufacturing tolerances can be more easily compensated.
  • the isolation device is designed plugged or pushed onto the protective switching device.
  • a plugging or pushing the isolation device on the circuit breaker allows easy to perform mounting the insulation device, especially when retrofitting existing electrical installations. The assembly effort is significantly reduced.
  • the main body is substantially U-shaped, wherein a first leg of the U-shaped main body of a first partition and a second leg of the U-shaped base body formed by a second partition are. The first and the second leg serve to electrically isolate the protective switching device in the region of its electrical terminal against a neighboring arranged protective switching device, for example in a distribution box.
  • the electrical connections of adjacent protection devices can be close to each other, so that the prescribed clearances and creepage distances can not be met without additional insulation.
  • the first and the second partition wall which are arranged between the electrical terminals adjacent to each other arranged protective switching devices, represents such insulation.
  • the insulation device to the protection device can be fastened.
  • the outer distance of the first partition to the second partition substantially corresponds to a width of the protective switching device.
  • the insulation device is substantially flush with the broad sides, which define the width of the protective device, from.
  • the electromechanical protective switching device according to the invention which is designed in particular as a circuit breaker, as a residual current circuit breaker or as a circuit breaker, has at least one insulation device of the type described above.
  • the protective switching device is arranged in a busbar network, wherein the insulation device for electrically insulating the protective switching device against at least one adjacent arranged protective switching device is used.
  • the insulation device for electrically insulating the protective switching device against at least one adjacent arranged protective switching device is used.
  • the insulation device 100 has a base body with a U-shaped cross section, wherein a connection region 103 of the U-shaped base body connects a first partition 101 formed as a first leg to a second partition wall 102 designed as a second leg.
  • a connection region 103 an opening for passing an electrical connection line is formed in order to secure it in the mounted state of the insulation device 100 to a protective switching device 1 (see FIG FIG. 2 ) with a contact element (see FIGS. 3A and 3B ) of the protective switching device 1 to connect electrically conductive.
  • the opening is divided by a web 107 into a first partial opening 105 and a second partial opening 106.
  • the web 107 extends from the first partition wall 101 to the second partition wall 102.
  • the attachment of the isolation device 100 to a protective switching device 1 can be done for example by pushing, but also by plugging or latching.
  • the isolation device 100 has a plurality of fastening elements 104, which are formed in the region of the connection region 103 on the base body.
  • the insulating device 100 has a plurality of stiffening ribs 108, which extend from the first partition wall 101 and the second partition wall 102 toward the connection region 103 in order to give the base body a higher rigidity.
  • FIG. 2 schematically shows a perspective view of the inventive electro-mechanical protection device 1 with attached insulation device 100.
  • the protective switching device 1 has a housing 2. On a front side 4 of the housing 2, an actuating element 3 for manual actuation of the protective switching device 1 is arranged.
  • the front side 4 opposite is a mounting side 5, are provided on the fastening means (not shown) for fastening the housing 2 to a so-called support or top hat rail.
  • the housing 2 still has the front and the attachment side 4 and 5 interconnecting narrow and broad sides 6 and 7. At its narrow sides 6, the housing 2 in each case has a housing opening 8 for insertion of an electrical connecting line (not shown).
  • an insulating device 100 is attached to the housing 2 of the protective switching device 1 respectively.
  • the first partial opening 105 and the second partial opening 106 are in the region of the housing opening 8, so that an electrical connection line passes through the first partial opening 105 or the second partial opening 106 into the housing opening 8 can be plugged to there with an electrically conductive contact element (see FIGS. 3A and 3B ) of the protective switching device 1 to be contacted.
  • FIGS. 3A and 3B show the protective switching device 1 according to the invention with the insulating device 100 attached thereto in two sectional views.
  • FIG. 3A shows the protective switching device 1 with an attached isolation device 100 without bridge, while in FIG. 3B the protective switching device 1 is shown with an attached insulating device 100 with web 107.
  • test finger 200 With the help of a so-called test finger 200, the difference between the two variants should be clearly illustrated.
  • isolation device 100 has a web 107, which divides the opening formed in the connection region 103 into a first partial opening 105 and a second partial opening 106. Since the two partial openings 105 and 106 are dimensioned by the web 107 significantly smaller than the original opening, is achieved in this way that the test finger 200 not so deep in the partial openings 105 and 106 - and thus in the housing opening 8 - can penetrate. In this way, a contact of the electrically conductive contact elements, for example, the terminal body of the terminal 9, the pressure piece 10 or the electrical contact 11, effectively prevented. The risk of electric shock by manual contact of one of the mentioned contact elements is thus excluded.
  • the structural design of the isolation device 100 allows the contacting of electrical connection conductors with both large and small conductor cross-section. Furthermore, it is also possible to electrically connect other electrical connection elements, for example a busbar or a feed element, to the protective switching device 1 while at the same time ensuring the IP20 contact protection.
