Claim:
A double throw switch linkage for coupling two switch apparatus together in an enclosure, with each switch apparatus coupled to a switch mechanism having a switch mechanism lever arm, the double throw switch linkage comprising: an actuator plate slidingly mounted to a sidewall of the enclosure with fasteners through a plurality of actuator plate slots defined in the actuator plate, with the actuator plate also defining a first switch slot, a second switch slot and a driver arm slot, with each switch slot configured to guide a pin mounted on each switch mechanism lever arm; and a lever arm assembly mounted on a side wall of the enclosure, with the lever arm assembly including a lever arm coupled to a driver arm, with the driver arm configured to engage the driver arm slot in the actuator plate, wherein movement of the lever arm translates a force to the actuator plate which closes one switch apparatus and maintains the other switch apparatus in an open position.
