Wireless system for one or more electrical switching apparatus
First Claim
1. A system for displaying information from or for controlling electrical switching apparatus, said system comprising:
- at least one electrical switching apparatus comprising separable contacts and a plurality of conditions;
a plurality of sensors structured to sense at least some of the conditions of said at least one electrical switching apparatus and communicate said sensed at least some of the conditions over corresponding wireless signals; and
a unit operatively associated with said at least one electrical switching apparatus, said unit structured to receive said corresponding wireless signals and display information corresponding to at least one of said sensed at least some of the conditions or to control said at least one electrical switching apparatus based upon at least one of said sensed at least some of the conditions.

Abstract
A system displays information from and controls electrical switching apparatus, such as circuit breakers. The system includes a plurality of circuit breakers having separable contacts and a plurality of conditions, such as bus temperature and contact wear. A plurality of sensors are structured to sense the conditions of the circuit breakers and to communicate the sensed conditions over corresponding wireless signals. A display and control unit is operatively associated with the circuit breakers and is structured to receive the corresponding wireless signals and display information corresponding to the sensed conditions or to control the circuit breakers based upon one or more of the sensed conditions.
