  • the present invention relates to the field of unitary modular electrical protection products of the switch, circuit breaker, differential block, switch and differential circuit breaker type, etc.
  • This known distribution function is generally carried out by one or more rigid conductors connecting the upstream connection terminals of the electrical devices to the same potential. This or these conductors then extend in their quasi-integrity outside the electrically connected devices, the devices being held on a rail called "modular rail" well known to those skilled in the art.

  • the system is at least partly contained in the volume defined by the electrical devices in order to exceed as little as possible the volume defined by the two devices and therefore to allow the installing electrician to have more volume at the exterior of the devices with a conventional bridging system. This is possible because the two functions, potential distribution and fixing of the devices are included in the same mechanical and electrical connection system.

  • This screw is accessible through a cylindrical hole 105 opening into a side wall of one of the boxes of the assembly.
  • This hole allows, during the assembly of the mechanical and electrical connection system according to the embodiment, to access the head of the screw 102, this in order to carry out the screwing of the screw 102 on the rod 100.
  • the hole cylindrical 105 ends with a counterbore which allows the head of the screw 102 to be supported on an end box of the assembly.
  • the screw 102 being in contact with the rod 100 which distributes an electrical potential, it is therefore itself at the same electrical potential as that of the rod 100.
  • the head of the screw 102 is therefore accessible to a user and presents a risk of electric shock when the apparatuses of the assembly are in service.
  • One possible solution is to offset the counterbore from the bottom of the hole 105 so that the head of the screw is no longer accessible by the user's finger. In this case the head of the screw 102 remains always visible to the user and he is protected.
  • Another option is the one shown in the figures 13 and 14 .
  • the hole 105 is surrounded by a surface 106 parallel to the face of the housing and offset from the latter so as to allow the installation of a shutter 107. Thanks to this surface offset, the surface 106 is set back by relative to the lateral face of the housing, once in place the shutter 107 is flush with the lateral surface of the housing and is thus almost invisible and does not affect the dimension of the row of boxes as can be seen in the figure 14 .
  • the shutter has a rectangular shape, the shape of the shutter has no influence on its function from the moment its surface covers the through hole 105.
