DEFINITION

Classification: 337/387

(under subclass 384) Subject matter wherein the contact control structure includes frictional clutch connecting means or other elements connected in such a manner as to provide a significant time lag between the application of a force to the control means, by the thermal responsive device, and the transmittal of the applied force directly to the movable contact or contacts.
