Abstract

An adapter module allows circuit breakers and disconnect switches of varying ratings to be installed within a common power panel enclosure. The adapter consists of a plastic base member through which multiple contact jaws extend for plugging onto the individual phase buses of a multi-phase power system. The opposite ends of the jaws include means for connecting with the line terminal of both the electric circuit breakers as well as the electric disconnect switches.
