Abstract

See full text

A switching system for interrupting an electrical circuit is described. This switch includes a number of preferred and other embodiments which have this as their goal, but which represents a number of distinctive and novel approaches to solving switching problems in the prior art. By way of example only, these approaches include provision of mounting strap which supports ground terminals while also serving as a magnetic circuitry conduit; a 'banger' type arrangement which enables alternate making and breaking of a circuit; and a space-saving method for supporting the arrangement within a device or system able to be installed within a conventional receptacle box.
