Abstract
A ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) with a reset lockout mechanism and reverse wiring protection is applicable to various appliance, instruments, equipments, devices or systems. Its characteristics are that: a lockout mechanism or a reverse wiring protection part is mounted at the reset button, the conducting static contacts of the load side are fixed to the wiring pieces of the load side, and the conducting movable contacts of the line side are in direct touch with the wiring pieces of the load side. As compared with the prior art, the circuit interrupter of this invention has features as follows: smaller volume, less winding turns, more intensive magnetic force of the trip coil, faster tripping speed, more effective and more reliable protection function of the reset button, less sparks produced while the trip is being reset, more steady and better conductivity when supplying power, and simpler structure which makes its assembly work easier, thus productivity can be enhanced and the cost reduced.
