Abstract

An air circuit breaker bell alarm lock-out accessory interacts with the circuit breaker closing system to prevent charging of the circuit breaker closing spring until and unless the bell alarm module has been manually reset. A lockout slide on the bell alarm module support interacts with the circuit breaker closing spring operating link to prevent the recharging of the closing spring.
