Type L Circuit Breaker Mechanisms

9421 Type L
Circuit Breaker Operating Mechanism

Type L door-mounted, variable depth operating mechanisms feature heavy duty, all metal construction with trip indication. All mechanisms can be padlocked in the Off position when the enclosure door is open. Further, the handle assemblies can be locked Off with up to three padlocks, which also locks the enclosure when the door is closed. (The 3 in. handle accepts one padlock.) Complete kits are rated for NEMA 1, 3R, and 12 enclosures. They include a handle assembly, operating mechanism, and shaft assembly.

Footnotes

  1. Mounting depth measured in inches from circuit breaker mounting surface (control panel) to outside of enclosure door.
  2. These circuit breaker operating mechanisms must use the 9421LHP•• or LCP•• handles only.
  3. Type LW1 and LW4 include an 8 in. handle (9421LHP8) rather than a 6 in. handle.
  4. For a red handle and yellow bezel, add suffix RY to catalog number, e.g., 9421LH6RY.
  5. 3 in. handles are not recommended for use with these circuit breakers.
