However, since the double-sided contact structure in which the insert blade 7 electrically connected to the load side terminal 5 is inserted into the receiving blade 6 electrically connected to the ground side terminal 4, the conventional contact point is adopted. Compared with the method, the structure can be simplified, the contact area becomes large, and even with a large capacity, contact welding unlike the conventional case does not occur, and it becomes easy to secure contact reliability. Further, by covering the one connected to the load side terminal 5 with the handle 8 which is an insulating member, the charging part is not exposed even when the handle 8 is turned off, and the charging part is protected so that the charging part can be operated safely. Since the blade 7 is housed and held in the handle 8 made of an insulating material, the handle 8 can also serve as an insulating member of the insert blade 7, and can prevent an increase in the number of parts, and the insert blade in the handle 8 can be prevented. Since 7 is inserted into the receiving blade 6, it is possible to make the size of the neutral switch 1 to the minimum size that can satisfy the function and performance, and to realize the compactness while increasing the capacity of the neutral switch 1. Further, since the connecting member 9b of the holding member 9 of the handle 8 can be fixed by being sandwiched between the load side terminal 5 and the body 3, the holding member 9 can be attached to the body 3 without using a mounting screw or the like.
It can be easily attached and the assemblability is improved. still,
An insulating member for insulating the insert blade 7 may be provided separately from the handle 8, but the body 3 is made compact,
From the viewpoint of preventing an increase in the number of parts, it is preferable that the handle 8 also serves as an insulating member.

When the handle 8 is turned on,
With the isolation wall 11 provided on the handle 8, the insertion blade 7 is inserted into the receiving blade 6 and abuts against the body 3 to regulate the insertion amount of the insertion blade 7 with respect to the receiving blade 6. When the wall 11 is in contact with the body 3, it is turned on, so that the on position of the handle 8 can be clarified, and the isolation wall 11
Since the side surface of the receiving blade 6 can be isolated from the outside, the receiving blade 6 can be prevented from being exposed to the outside and the appearance can be improved.

On the other hand, when the handle 8 is turned off, the handle 8 and the holding member 9 have substantially the same width,
On the side end faces of the isolation walls 11 on both sides of the handle 8, downwardly inclined portions 13 are formed so as to incline so as to become lower from the inner side to the outer side. Since each of the upward slopes 14 is formed so as to become higher toward the outside, the holding member 9 is always biased toward the handle 8 side, and when the handle 8 is turned off, the momentum is increased. Thus, the holding member 9 can be prevented from bending outward, and the handle 8 can be reliably held. Moreover, a mounting screw 18 is attached to the portion of the body 3 below the isolation wall 11.
Since the mounting portion 19 for tightening is attached, the mounting screw 18 is fitted into the mounting portion 19 of the body 3 in this off state, and the driver is inserted from the front F of the isolation wall 11 to tighten the mounting screw 18. It becomes possible. In addition, when the handle is operated, the ground-side terminal 4 is located at the tip end side of the handle 8 and at a position lower than the lower surface of the handle 8 when the handle 8 is on. There is also an advantage that the insulation distance from the side terminal 4 can be widened, the handle 8 can be operated more easily, and the operability is improved.
