Abstract:
A switchgear, in particular a circuit protection device, includes: a housing; a fixed contact that is fixed to the housing; a movable contact, the movable contact being arranged on a contact arm that is arranged in the switchgear so as to be movable; a latching device that is connected to the contact arm; a manual actuation device that has an actuation projection, which manual actuation device is connected to the latching device by a bar, the movable contact being brought into contact with the fixed contact when the actuation projection is moved from an off-position of the actuation projection to an on-position of the actuation projection. When the actuation projection is moved from the on-position towards the off-position as far as a specified trip position of the actuation projection, the bar remains still. When the projection is moved past the trip position, the bar is moved past a holding point.
