Abstract
The present invention provides a cover for an exposed bus bar attached to an electrical control device having a contour mounting surface for circuit interrupters. The cover includes a generally planar body member having sufficient size to substantially cover the exposed bus bar. The cover includes means for securing the body to the device so that the position of the body prevents contact between the bus bar and a person's finger or equipment particularly when an individual circuit interrupter is mounted to the device.
