Figure 13.17 Preferred embodiment of TRC residual current device: (A), (B)<br />

(C) unprimed state with electrical contacts open; (D) fully primed state with<br />

elecrical contacts closed; (E) actuation with latch arm bent to one side by cam 61.<br />

4. Adjusting means to condition said actuating means to enable closing of<br />

said contact means;<br />

5. And electrically energised holding means separate from said adjusting<br />

means but which co-operates with said actuating means once conditioned<br />

to maintain the conditioning of said actuating means and close<br />

said contact means only when the voltage across said holding means<br />

exceeds a pre-determined level.<br />

The key parts described in the claim (with their part numbers) include<br />

Contact means (contacts 27 and 31)<br />

Mechanical actuating means (leaf spring 37)<br />

Adjusting means (button 17) and<br />

Electrically energized holding means (armature 57)<br />
