Abstract

A heavy-duty circuit breaker has a housing with a longitudinal housing axis and a contact arrangement disposed in the housing. The contact arrangement is conductively connected to a first electrical lead fed through the housing and a second electrical lead fed through the housing. The housing comprises a first housing part and a second housing part. The first electrical lead is fed through the first housing part, and the second electrical lead through the second housing part. The two housing parts are connected together so as to be rotatable in opposite directions about the longitudinal housing axis.
