Overview of Current Research into Low-Voltage Circuit Breakers
The low-voltage circuit breaker has been used for many years for network and persons protection. The review papers existing on these devices generally deal with electrical aspects or macroscopic information on the arc but few concern the “fine” understanding of arc behaviour from its ignition between the opening contact to the current limitation stage due to its presence in the splitter plates....
متن کاملAF Compact Low - Voltage Circuit Breakers
In order to protect wiring, facilities, human bodies and the like from electric accidents such as overcurrent to the load, a short circuit, ground fault or earth leakage of an electrical line, low-voltage circuit breakers, as typifi ed by molded case circuit breakers (MCCB) and earth leakage circuit breakers (ELCB), are installed in every type of machine, equipment, facility and building that u...
متن کاملSolid-State Circuit Breakers For Medium Voltage
How can the large power needs of future electric ships for propulsion, radar, and weapons systems be met given the prohibitive size and weight of the required number of standard 60 Hz AC generators and transformers? A solution may lie in a rugged, efficient, and compact solid-state, 10-20 kV Medium Voltage DC (MVDC) circuit breaker (Figure 1). In this paper, Diversified Technologies, Inc. will ...
متن کاملBenefits of Controlled Switching of Medium Voltage Circuit Breakers
This paper describes the benefits of using controlled switching technology on medium voltage circuit breakers. Although this technology has been used on high voltage networks for over 30 years, recent technological advances have permitted the development of a new generation of controlled switching devices for medium voltage. This paper reviews controlled switching device approaches, describes m...
متن کاملModel-aided Diagnosis for High Voltage Circuit Breakers
ENGLISH) Motivated by economic pressures, power utilities are increasingly looking for new ways of reducing their costs while maintaining the quality of supply. A promising concept is predictive or condition based maintenance of high voltage equipment, based on continuos knowledge of each device’s condition. Power transformers and high voltage circuit breakers (HVCBs) have been the focus of att...
