"textContent": "The present invention relates to a self-powered recloser (10), comprising:- a circuit breaker (20);- an electrical actuator (30);- an electrical generator (40);- a capacitor (60); and- a lever (50).The circuit breaker when in an on state is configured to harvest power from a medium voltage line required to actuate its movable contact to interrupt current flow in the medium voltage line. The circuit breaker when in an off state is configured not to harvest power from the medium voltage line required to actuate its movable contact to interrupt current flow in the medium voltage line. The electrical actuator is configured to transition the circuit breaker from the off state to the on state. The capacitor when charged is configured to provide the electrical actuator with the electrical power required to transition the circuit breaker from the off state to the on state. The lever is configured to be moved by an operative. Movement of the lever is configured to charge the capacitor via the electrical generator.",
