Field-installable accessories are used within a thermal-magnetic industrial-rated circuit breaker. One such accessory in the form of a combined undervoltage release and shunt trip unit is field-installable within the circuit breaker cover. A bell alarm accessory unit can also be inserted within the circuit breaker cover either in combination with or apart from the undervoltage-shunt trip accessory unit.
