permanently mounted circuit breaker

Explanation:
You seem to be parsing the source text incorrectly. It's not "disjuntor de execução", but "disjuntor" ... "de execução totalmente fixo"

disjuntor de execução totalmente fixo
-->
permanently installed/mounted breaker

That refers back to "montagem desconectável (fixo sobre chassis com rodas). ", referring to a breaker which is mounted on a wheeled trolley (known as a 'truck') which allows the rapid exchange of a faulty breaker with a good one.

Source: personal on-hands experience (albeit 30+ years ago...).
