PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve the workability of a conductor to a zero-phase current transformer even in the case where the conductor has plural poles, and to miniaturize a circuit breaker itself by providing a main body part and wing parts for insulating between plate-like conductors in an insulating barrier arranged in a conductor pass- through hole of the zero-phase current transformer. SOLUTION: Each conductor passing through a zero-phase current transformer 35 is insulated from each other by an interpole insulating barrier 42. The interpole insulating barrier 42 is made of the insulating synthetic resin, and arranged inside of the zero-phase current transformer 35. A first to a third conductive plates 221-223 are arranged into π-shape in relation to the interpole barrier 42. A central part 221c of the first conductive plate 221 and a central part 222c of the second conductive plate 222 are insulated from each other by a rectangular main body part 42a of the interpole insulating barrier 42. The central part 221c of the first conductive plate 221 and the third conductive plate 223 are insulated from each other by a wing part 42b of the interpole insulating barrier 42, and the central part 222c of the second conductive plate 222 and the third conductive plate 223 are insulated from each other by a wing part 42c thereof. With this structure, coating of each conductive plate 221-223 is unnecessary.

In the prior art earth leakage breaker described above, each conductor 7 penetrating through the zero-phase current transformer 9 is insulated by a covering component such as an insulating tube 8 or an insulating tape. Therefore, there is a problem that it is difficult for the conductor 7 to penetrate the zero-phase current transformer 9 at the time of wiring. In addition, when the insulating tube 8 is used, the insulating tube 8 itself may be damaged when the zero-phase current transformer 9 penetrates, and when the insulating tape is used, the winding operation may be defective. Therefore, there is a possibility that the mounting operation of the coated part may be defective, which may cause a serious accident. Further, since the shape of the conductor 7 itself is large, it is difficult to accommodate the conductor 7 in a limited space in the earth leakage breaker, and there is a problem that the entire breaker becomes large.
