Abstract (en)

Interlock device (1) suitable to be arranged within an electric panel or box in order to prevent that first (Sw-sx) and second (Sw-dx) electrical circuit breakers are both in a closed state. The interlock device (1) is intended to be sandwiched between facing side walls (2c, 3b) belonging to the first and second electrical circuit breakers respectively, and it comprises first (15) and second (16) secondary control members suitable to be operatively movable through respective openings (10, 11) provided on the facing side walls (2c, 3b) of the first (Sw-sx) and second (Sw-dx) circuit breakers. The side arrangement of the interlock device, and the ability thereof to laterally act with the circuit breakers allow applying front implements to the circuit breakers, while obtaining an interlock device suitable to reduce the thickness dimensions inside the electric panel, and characterized by a relatively easy structure both from the point of view of the components which are employed, and the operation thereof.
