| Zusammenfassung: | A gas directing system for a circuit breaker is disclosed. The system includes an insulative housing that fits over vents that convey hot gases upon operation of the circuit breaker. The housing has phase partitions that separate phase sections from one another, and transverse partitions that separate a venting sections for each phase from terminal sections. Gas diverting structures are provided in the venting sections that redirect hot gases towards apertures through which the gases vent. The overall structure may be much lower profile than previous design spacing requirements. |
