    Circuit Breaker Exploded View

    -Cutaway before use, that is... Nice.

    This is another <200 Amps 400 VAC 3-phase circuit breaker (exploded view) after final use:

    Pretty decent exterior, right? Opening up by drilling out the rivets shows the mayhem...

    Note the impressive copper blob on the contact point, the heat witness marks & oxidation of the flash arrestors.
