Figure 1 shows starting panel with a carbon break circuit-breaker, and Figure 2 shows a panel which has the same ar-rangement of face plate contacts, etc., but has a main switchand fuses instead of a circuit breaker. All sizes are providedwith low voltage release devices which automatically returnthe contact arms to the starting position on interruptionof the power. All contacts on sizes over 11-4 h. p. either 110 or 220 voltsare renewable from the front without disturbing any connec-tion. In all sizes the initial contacts are protected fromburning by a quick break arcing tip on the front of the panelor by a blow out coil on the rear, which prevents burningthe contact on opening the Fig. 2.
