In fact its the same with the Control Circuit Breaker to the right.Only one pole is utilised.This is probably the safer option to keep the negative permanently grounded to the loco frame to prevent any unwanted potential from appearing on the loco frame.Inspite of needing only one pole,the more reliable MCCB has been used probably because it can interrupt heavy DC currents safely and also has intelligent tripping options unlike the simpler Miniature Circuit Breaker(MCB)fitted in the top row.
