Patent

CA 2515035

A GFCI device (10) which has reverse wiring protection is provided where no power is present at the face terminals (32, 34) even when the device is reversed wired. The device has a pair of movable bridges connected to its terminals. The terminal bridge pair makes contact with the load and the face terminals (32, 34) providing power to these terminals when the device is reset. The device also has a reset lockout feature that prevents it from being reset after having been tripped if the circuit interrupting portion of the device is non-operational.

L'invention concerne un dispositif disjoncteur de fuite de terre (GFCI) qui présente une protection contre le câblage inverse selon laquelle il n'y a pas de courant au niveau des bornes de face même si le câblage du dispositif est inversé. Ce dispositif comprend une paire de ponts mobiles reliés à leurs bornes. La paire de ponts de bornes établit un contact avec les bornes de charge et de face et permet de fournir du courant aux bornes lorsque le dispositif est réinitialisé. Ledit dispositif comprend également un mécanisme de blocage de réinitialisation qui empêche le dispositif d'être réinitialisé après avoir été activé si la partie d'interruption de circuit du dispositif n'est pas opérationnelle.
