Abstract (en)

[origin: ES8406788A1] A low voltage circuit breaker in a moulded case comprises a breaker unit (10) and a remote control unit coupled to it that controls the swing of a bistable movable contact (22) housed in the breaker unit. A trip mechanism (50) cooperates with movable contact (22) in the case of a fault to swing movable contact (22) into open circuit position independently of the remote control mechanism (48). A resetting handle (88) must be actuated in order to render the circuit breaker reoperative.
