Patent ID: 7710694

Claim:
An earth leakage breaker with over current protection and earth leakage protection functions, comprising: a main body housing having, in a single structure, a casing and a case cover, and an auxiliary cover for covering the case cover, said case cover having a recess for mounting an internal accessory device, components mounted on the main body housing, the components including a main circuit contact, a contact switching mechanism, an operation handle, an overcurrent tripping device, an earth leakage detection circuit combined with a zero-phase current transformer, and an earth leakage trip device, and an earth leakage operation output switch formed as one unit and attachably and detachably mounted in the recess formed in the case cover, the earth leakage operation output switch being the internal accessory device that indicates earth leakage trip operation electrically and linking mechanically with the earth leakage trip device to operate the earth leakage operation output switch in the earth leakage trip operation, wherein said recess of the case cover is located next the earth leakage trip device so that when the earth leakage operation output switch is inserted into the recess, the earth leakage operation output switch mechanically engages the earth leakage trip device, and wherein said earth leakage operation output switch comprises a switch case, a micro switch disposed in the switch case and having a plunger projecting downwardly from the switch case, an engage projection integrally formed with the switch case and projecting from one side thereof, a hook integrally formed with the switch case at a side opposite to the engage projection and projecting outwardly therefrom, and a lead wire support projecting upwardly from the switch case.
