专利汇可以提供Integral fuse and switch support for metal-enclosed switch gear专利检索,专利查询,专利分析的服务。并且High voltage pad-mounted switch gear is provided for three phase loop feeder circuits and fused load circuits. The loop circuits are interconnected by series-connected loop feeder switches. Isolator switches of the telescoping bayonet type are connected between the loop circuit and the fuses. One end of the isolator switch and one end of the fuse are supported by a molded insulator strut. The molded insulator strut has a first hollow turret projection for guiding and supporting one end of the fuse and a second hollow turret projection for supporting the isolator switch. The turret projections enclose the connection between the fuse and the isolator switch thereby providing greater isolation and insulation between the phases of the loop circuits. A tool is provided for removing and inserting the fuse. An interlocking blocking arrangement prevents access to the fuse by the tool until the isolator switch has opened the circuit to the fuse thereby preventing injury to the serviceman and damage to the equipment.,下面是Integral fuse and switch support for metal-enclosed switch gear专利的具体信息内容。
