Abstract

A circuit breaker support saddle is assembled automatically from three plastic support pieces without welding or using separate fasteners to secure the pieces together. The metal circuit breaker support rails are positioned onto blocks integrally formed on the two outermost pieces to mechanically hold the pieces together as a single unit. The circuit breaker stab support busses are retained within elongated slots formed within the outer edges of the central support piece.
