Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0067280A1] The invention relates to a circuit breaker (1) that is designed to be added to an auxiliary device with auxiliary functions, such as a residual current operated device or an undervoltage circuit breaker. Said auxiliary device brings about a switch-off coupling by means of a catch (2). Said circuit breaker comprises a zone of latching between a latch (3) and a trip lever (4). According to the invention, the catch (2), in a switch-off position of the auxiliary device, directly or indirectly displaces a spacer element (5) that spaces the latch (3) apart from the trip lever (4) and prevents the latching.
