ABSTRACT:
A circuit breaker having a plurality of breaker units, in each of which a movable contact of a movable contactor is separated from and engaged with a fixed contact of a fixed contactor from the exterior of a breaker housing by a manual contact opening and closing mechanism which is made operative to close the contacts normally with a tripping link retained as locked to the mechanism and inoperative with the link released from the mechanism by a tripping means responsive to an excess current. The tripping link is operatively interconnected to those in other units through a single coupling rod to cooperate simultaneously with the releasing by the tripping means in either one of the units.
