Abstract
A leakage current interrupter comprising a trip mechanism that operates automatically in response to the presence of a shock hazard condition. Actuation of the trip mechanism automatically interrupts the flow of current to a load and permits movement of a reset button to take place to visually signal that current to the load has been interrupted, although interruption of current flow is not in any way dependent on movement of the reset button, whereupon if movement of the reset button is prevented for any reason, the flow of current to the load is still automatically and instantaneously interrupted in response to the presence of a shock hazard. Such shock hazard exists when two separated shock hazard conductors in said load are bridged by a conductive material, such as water.
