ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to an electrical wiring device that includes a plurality of line terminals, a plurality of load terminals, and a plurality of receptacle load terminals. A circuit interrupter is coupled to the plurality of line terminals, the plurality of load terminals and the plurality of receptacle load terminals. The circuit interrupter includes a latch mechanism configured to electrically couple the plurality of line terminals to the plurality of load terminals and the plurality of receptacle load terminals in a reset state and decouple at least one of the plurality of line terminals from at least one of the plurality of load terminals and at least one of the plurality of receptacle load terminals from each other in a tripped state. A reset assembly is coupled to the latch mechanism. The reset assembly includes a substantially non-metallic reset button assembly configured to engage the latch mechanism to thereby drive the circuit interrupter from the tripped state into the reset state.
