The ABB RHE NORM.Returned for F/W T7 is a rotary handle operating mechanism designed as an accessory for ABB T7 series moulded case circuit breakers (fixed‑withdrawable type). It allows manual operation of a circuit breaker from outside the enclosure and integrates safety features such as a padlock provision and door interlock. It’s adjustable in depth so it can fit panels with different thicknesses while maintaining reliable mechanical connection to the breaker’s internal mechanism.
