Patent ID: 7307227

Claim:
The circuit-breaking device consisting of a lower switch part ( 2 ) to be brought into an electrical contact with current busbars, an upper switch part ( 1 ) attachable to the lower switch part ( 2 ), comprising at least one fuse link, switch module, or contactor, and comprising a connection module ( 3 ) for at least one outgoing conductor ( 42 ), wherein the lower switch part ( 2 ) includes contact elements ( 5 , 6 , 7 ) being in an electrical contact with the current busbars ( 9 , 10 , 11 ), which are contactable by plug contacts ( 17 , 18 , 19 ) of the upper switch part ( 1 ) in a touch-safe manner via an access slot ( 12 , 13 , 14 ) in an upper surface of the lower switch part ( 2 ), and wherein the connection module ( 3 ) is pivotably mounted ( 50 ) at the side of the upper switch part ( 1 ) or the lower switch part ( 2 ) and is provided with laterally into the upper switch part ( 1 ) retractable electrical contacts ( 38 , 39 , 40 ) associated with each outgoing conductor ( 42 ).
