摘要:
A minimum volume oil interrupter is immersed in the oil of a dead tank bulk oil circuit breaker and is operated by the conventional operating mechanism of the bulk oil breaker. The minimum volume interrupter vents to the external atmosphere through a hollow tube in the terminal bushing.

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.
摘要:
Electrical switch designed for high voltage and/or current and surrounded by a housing (2) divided into a first part (2′) forming a first compartment for taking up at least one switching device (3) and an appurtenant actuator device (4), and a second part (2″) forming a second compartment for connecting of at least one phase. At least the first part (2′) of the housing (2) is pressure sealed encapsulated and filled with oil under pressure.

A preferred embodiment of an interrupter assembly for a circuit breaker includes a first contact, a conductor, and a second contact mounted on the conductor. The second contact and the conductor are movable in relation to the first contact between a first position wherein the first and the second contacts are in electrical contact, and a second position. The interrupter assembly also includes a body having a first and a second half each having a plurality of recesses formed therein. The recesses form chambers within the body for holding insulating fluid when the first and the second halves are mated. The body receives the second contact and the conductor so that the conductor and the second contact are drawn through the chambers as the second contact moves from the first to the second position.

The invention teaches the use of a shock-resisting non-gasabsorptive plate of insulating material mounted on the internal tank walls of an oil circuit-breaker, and centered on the current-interrupter vents. Resilient rubber insulators are used in resiliently mounting the shock-resisting plate to absorb the shock forces exerted by the ionized gas products striking the shield. The insulating barrier is permitted to resiliently move to accommodate short-duration pressure differences on the front and rear faces thereof, thus avoiding damaging deflections of the plate.
摘要:
A pair of two position snap action oil immersed switches are provided using an overcenter spring toggle to make or break contacts. Three terminals are provided, one terminal being common to each switch. The movable contacts have a double break to aid in arc interruption and the arc formed on one break tends to force oil across the arc formed at the other break to help interrupt the arc. The switches can be ganged to provide three phase switching.
