ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A longitudinally elongated, planar line strap for circuit breakers mounts on its upper surface adjacent one end a pair of transversely aligned, spaced apart main contacts. An arcing contact is mounted on a lanced-up portion of the strap joined to the strap body at a loca- tion intermediate the main contacts. An elongated arc runner is cantilever mounted to the free end of the lanced- up strap portion for extension out into an arc chute. The current in the strap flows along paths effective to motivate an arc off the main contacts and out onto the arcing contact and thence the arc runner where it is captured by the arc chute.
