The invention discloses an optically controlled modular type mixed breaker belonging to the field of electric power high-voltage large-capacity breakers. On the basis of the existing vacuum breaker, SF6 breaker and photoelectric control, the optically controlled module type mixed breaker is formed. The permanent magnet control mechanism of an optically controlled vacuum breaker module is directly connected with an arc extinguish chamber and the like in the equipotential mode, and an inductive power supply coil directly obtains electric energy from load current to supplement a storage battery; a low-potential controller receives the on and off switching signals of a power system and controls the control mechanisms of the vacuum breaker and the SF6 breaker to move after carrying out synchronious coordination calculation on a low-potential end; and the on and off switching signasl received by the low-potential controller can be directly controlled by the computer of the power system. The invention can match the vacuum breaker module and the SF6 breaker module which have different parameters according to voltage levels to form the high-voltage large-capacity mixed breaker. The relevant modules have simple structure, reliable operation and long service life, are free from external interference, and can realize the large-capacity breaker the voltage level of which is more than 110 kV.
