The present invention provides a cover (10) for an exposed bus bar (28, 30) attached to an electrical control device having a contour mounting surface for circuit interrupters. The cover (10) includes a generally planar body member (42) having sufficient size to substantially cover the exposed bus bar. The cover (10) includes elements (284, 253, 276, 278) for securing the body (42) to the device so that the position of the body prevents contact between the bus bar (28, 30) and a person's finger or equipment particularly when an individual circuit interrupter is mounted to the device. The present invention also includes a method of safely protecting an exposed bus bar (28, 30) attached to an electrical distribution device having a contoured surface for mounting a plurality of individual circuit interrupters to control branch circuits. The method includes the step of demountably securing a cover (10) to the device so that the position of the cover prevents contact between the bus bar (28, 30) and a person's finger or equipment particularly when the in- dividual circuit interrupter is mounted to the device. The cover (10) is manu- ally attached and detached from the device.
