Patent CA-2857716-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MONAHAN TERRY
IPC: H02B13/025
Filed: 2012-12-05
Abstract: An electrical enclosure includes a mechanism for moving and/or extinguishing an arc fault occurring in a first compartment of the electrical enclosure. The mechanism is positioned adjacent to a busbar in a second compartment of the electrical enclosure. In the case of a first arc fault occurring in the first compartment, an explosion occurs which results in a pressure wave. The pressure wave causes the mechanism to move into the second compartment and make electrical contact with the busbar, which causes a short and/or a second arc fault in the second compartment, thereby extinguishing the first arc fault in the first compartment.
