The example linking assembly includes a hatchet having first and second edges and an arcuate portion extending therebetween. The hatchet is movable between a latched position and an unlatched position. More specifically, the hatchet cooperates with a D-shaft that preferably extends outwardly from the aforementioned circuit breaker si-deplate and is movable (e.g., pivotable) between a first position and a second position. When the hatchet is disposed in the latched position, the D-shaft is disposed in the first position such that the first edge of the hatchet engages the D-shaft, thereby maintaining the hatchet in the position shown in Figures XXXX. When the D-shaft pivots to the second position, for example in response to a fault condition, the D-shaft pivots out of enga-gement with the first edge of the hatchet such that the hatchet pivots with respect to the D-shaft to unlatch the linking assembly.
