Gas insulated electrical equipment includes: a metal enclosure having an insulating gas introduced therein; a conductor that is accommodated inside the metal enclosure and to which voltage is applied; and an insulating and supporting member insulating and supporting the conductor relative to the metal enclosure. The conductor is circumferentially covered with a dielectric film, and furthermore, a nonlinear resistance film provided on the dielectric film and having a nonlinear volume resistivity decreasing when the nonlinear resistance film is acted on by an electric field higher than a critical value.

Featured is a particulate and pressure redirection barrier for an electrical breaker as well as a breaker embodying such a barrier. Such a barrier includes first through fifth segments, where the first segment includes a first and second side section and a bottom section that are coupled to each other so as to form a generally U shaped structure. The second segment is coupled to the first side section so it extends outwardly at an angle from the first side section. The third segment is coupled to the second side section so as to extend outwardly and at an angle from the second side section. The fourth segment is coupled to the second segment so as to extend outwardly from and at an angle with respect to the second segment. The fifth segment is coupled to the third segment so as to extend outwardly from and at an angle with respect to the third segment. Such a configuration of the fourth and fifth segments is such that gas flowing along a surface of the second or third segments is redirected at an angle with respect to that surface.

A system for adjusting the position of a circuit breaker is provided. The system allows for translation of the circuit breaker with respect to a support base and interfacing mechanisms, such as those that serve to switch the circuit breaker between its operative states. Adjustment is afforded by an adjustment plate fitted to the support base and that moves with the circuit breaker. Slots through the support base allow for movement of the plate and circuit breaker. A threaded member allows for continuous movement of the plate and circuit breaker for accurate positioning.

Mounting structure is provided for mounting a tank to support structure. The tank has a flange extending from a body thereof. The mounting structure includes at least a pair of first bores extending into the flange in a first direction. At least a pair of second bores. Each second bore extends into the flange in a direction generally transverse with respect to an associated first bore so that each second bore communicates with the associated first bore. A pin is disposed in each of the second bores. Each pin has a threaded pin bore that aligns axially with the associated first bore. A bolt is disposed through a bolt hole in the support structure, into an associated first bore and in threaded engagement with the threaded pin bore of an associated pin so as to secure the tank to the support structure.

An enclosure for a power supply is provided. An aspect includes a first compartment and a second compartment located adjacent to the first compartment. Another aspect includes an intermediate pressure relief flap located inside the enclosure in between the first compartment and the second compartment, and a top pressure relief flap located on an external surface of the second compartment. Another aspect includes the intermediate pressure relief flap and the top pressure relief flap configured to be closed in the absence of an arc fault in the enclosure, and the intermediate pressure relief flap and the top pressure relief flap configured to open based on the presence of the arc fault in the enclosure, such that plasma from the arc fault vents from the first compartment into the second compartment via the opened intermediate pressure relief flap and out of the second compartment via the opened top pressure relief flap

Disclosed is a molded case circuit breaker. The molded case circuit breaker includes include: a case; an interrupter assembly installed in the case, and provided with an arc gas outlet; an exhaustion guiding portion disposed between the interrupter assembly and the terminal portion; an exhaustion cover mounted to the case, with a structure to cover the exhaustion guiding portion; and exhaustion guides spaced from each other in the exhaustion guiding portion, in a direction perpendicular to an arc gas discharge direction, in a state where the gas divergence portion is disposed therebetween, the exhaustion guides forming the arc gas passage together with the gas divergence portion. Under such configuration, arc gas discharged out of the arc gas outlet can be rapidly discharged to outside through the exhaustion guides, without an eddy current.

An arc chamber for a circuit breaker has first and second mounting bodies. The mounting bodies are disposed at the ends of an electrically insulating insulation section of the arc chamber. The insulation section is formed of at least two shell-shaped partial sections. The partial sections are curved concavely relative to a longitudinal axis of the arc chamber. A gap is formed between the edges of the bodies of the partial sections.

The present invention is directed to a safety system integrated into a liquid-insulated high voltage network grounding switch, including modifications to the switch structure to provide an arrangement that is more efficiently installed with greater precision than found in conventional arrangements. The result is a switch assembly that adheres to updated IEEE/ANSI Standards, while still fitting into existing vault space meant to accommodate earlier switch gear.

An arc-resistant switchgear enclosure has a vent opening and a vent flap. Normally the vent flap is open to allow air to circulate through the enclosure. However, in the event of an arc fault explosion in the enclosure, the vent flap is forced to close by the explosion. As the vent flap closes, a flexible latch member moves along a keeper and prevents the vent flap from reopening. In some embodiments, the latch member contacts the keeper and props the vent flap open for normal operation.
