ABSTRACT:
Battery disconnect apparatus (1) for interrupting flow of power through an electrical circuit. A circuit breaker (3) is connected between a battery (B) and one or more components connected in the circuit. A switch (23) holds the circuit breaker in its closed position and moves the circuit breaker from its closed to an open position thereby interrupting the circuit. A force responsive mechanism 37 triggers the switch in response to extraordinary forces being exerted on a vehicle in which the battery and components are installed.
