Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2013087097A1] Electrical switch adapted for efficient contact replacement The present invention provides an electrical switch (100) adapted for facilitating contact (108, 202) replacement. The electrical switch (100) includes at least one pair of stationary contacts (104), and at least one movable contact assembly (106). Each movable contact assembly (106) includes a movable contact (108, 202), a carrier (204) for carrying the movable contact (108, 202), a holder element (206) movably inserted inside the first socket (212) for holding the moving contact (108, 202), and biasing means (208) for biasing the holder element (206) towards a base-end (204b) of the carrier (204). The carrier (204) further includes carrier coupling means (218) for coupling to an actuator device (300) such that the actuator device (300) is operable to displace the holder element (206) relative to the carrier (204) against a biasing force exerted by the biasing means (208).
