Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cover made of insulating material For fuse contacts arranged in pairs on NH (low-voltage, high-performance) fuse strips or parts, wherein the cover two hood-shaped cover elements for the Fuse contacts and one arranged between the covers Has base plate.
  • Covers serve the contacts and especially on electrical ones Power distribution networks people working in front of the to protect against accidental contact with the contacts.
  • the contacts of such a fuse strip exist each consisting of a pair of resilient elements, between which the Contact knife of a fuse link inserted under pressure can be.
  • the two contact parts are one Contact integrally connected to each other on her lower foot. From the base of these contacts there is a connector for connection with a busbar.
  • Generally are on one Safety bar for the three phases of the three-phase network three pairs of contacts arranged in a row, one contact of the three contact pairs with one Leader is connected while the other three contacts are connected to a busbar and in general to be under tension. Between such a pair of contacts each arranged a fuse link, which with its Contact knife is inserted between the contact surfaces and can also be pulled out of these.
  • a cover of the type mentioned is from DE-OS 39 18 816, known. This is formed in two parts, one Hood and essentially part of a half of the base plate and the other part through the other hood and in the essential other half of the base plate is formed. At the Undersides of the base plate are provided in the area which the respective base plate part in the housing of the fuse block is clickable.
  • the one base plate part is in Area of its end face facing the other base plate part with a substantially semicircular shape Provide projection and it has the other base part appropriately designed recess through which the projection passes. When the base plate part having the projection is removed becomes the assembly connection under the recess for the busbar contact belonging to this fuse link accessible.
  • This connection consists essentially of one with the corresponding busbar contact connected discharge angle, the for example as an L-shaped rail with an elongated hole in the angled L-leg is formed, through which a screw bolt is guided can be so that the L-leg to the associated busbar can be screwed on.
  • a disadvantage of the known cover that when working on Bolts, for example to tighten them, part of the cover, namely the base plate part with the projection the associated hood must be removed, which is usually contact covered by the hood, which is certainly due to voltage can, is freely accessible. The person working in the area of the security line is therefore subject to an increased risk.
  • Another disadvantage is that the cover consists of two parts and therefore in the Assembly or disassembly of the cover always handled two components separately Need to become. The result is that a part remains loose and this cannot rule out that a part is lost or not assembled.
  • From GB 1 183 115 A is an electrical device for recording known of a backup.
  • the device has an insulating Material existing box with floor and perpendicular to it as well as in walls arranged at right angles to one another. With the floor Fuse contacts attached, with supply and discharge lines to the fuse contacts lead the openings in opposite walls of the Enforce box.
  • the floor is screwed to an earthing bar.
  • the clear cross section of the box is penetrated by an insulating one Material existing plate. This is double opposite angled.
  • a central section of the plate is parallel to the floor the box positioned and screwed to the floor. Further, in parallel sections arranged to the opposite walls of the box the plate cover the fuse contacts on their assigned Lines away from the side.
  • DE 35 44 534 A1 discloses a switchable NH fuse with a branching device known. There is the push-through opening for the finger contacts a locking plate associated with the branching device.
  • DE 93 09 654 U is a fuse disconnector with a cover for Receiving contacts on a contact carrier on which the cover over a locking connection is held described.
  • DE 43 17 052 A1 relates a protective cap for a NH fuse contact.
  • the problem is solved with a cover of the type mentioned in that the base plate is provided with a closable opening is.
  • the design of the cover according to the invention ensures that this always covers the pair of fuse contacts, regardless of whether Work in the area of the bolt must be carried out. So that the bolt is accessible, it is only required to make the opening accessible. In the between the two hoods formed opening space can then the screw bolt can be applied unhindered. Are the Assembly work finished, it is only necessary to open the opening to close the base plate. The two fuse contacts and the area between them are then safe to touch covered.
  • the cover is as Plastic injection molded part.
