Abstract

A medium voltage controller for electrical equipment, such as motors, transformers, reactors, and capacitors, having an arc resistant cabinet, swaged internal electrical connections, a one-piece self-aligning withdrawable finger cluster, a pull-out instrument compartment, a load discharge device, cast fuse holders, disconnect switch, a switch illuminator, low power current transformers, and an optical temperature measuring system. The pull-out instrument compartment includes a sliding rack to which a hinged instrument mounting panel is attached. The mounting panel slides out of the compartment and swings away from the opening in the cabinet, allowing access to the cabinet internals.
