Vacuum circuit breaker ppt. We at system protection are a team of. Even with limited rating say 60 to 100mva they are suitable for the majority of applications in rural areas. Safety switch closed. Vacuum circuit breaker vcb working and applications uses of vcb 1.

Vacuum circuit breakers are employed for outdoor applications ranging from 22kv to 66kv. Circuit breaker market analysis over the years fuses are being replaced by circuit and the trend is expected to continue. Vcb have excellent interruption and dielectric recovery characteristics and can interrupt the high frequency currents which result from arc instability superimposed on the line frequency current. Vacuum circuit breakers a vacuum circuit breaker is a circuit breaker in which vacuum is used to extinct the arc.

V test initiation. Since vacuum offers the highest insulating strength it has far superior arc quenching properties than any other medium. As soon as the arc is produced in vacuum it is quickly extinguished due to the fast rate of recovery of dielectric strength in. Depending on the above duties circuit.

1 52a st 0 1. Vaccum circuit breakers vcb in such breakers vacuum degree of vacuum being in the range from 106 7 torr is used as the arc quenching medium. The pressure inside the vacuum interrupter is approximately 10 4 torrent and at this pressure very few molecules are present in the interrupter. Vacuum circuit breaker vacuum is used as an arc quenching medium.

The vacuum interrupter technology was first introduced in the year of 1960. We take our job seriously. About us ensuring a constant blood flow in your body is the doctors job ensuring a constant power supply to your industrial plants is ours. 0 1 52a st 0 1 time ms st v i a trip coil current s1 s4 52a y1.

When the breaker operates the moving contact separates from the fixed contact and an arc is struck between the contacts. K9 k9 bd st. This enables the permanent sealing of the vacuum chamber so as to eliminate the possibility of leak. As time goes on the size of the vacuum interrupter has reduced from its early 1960 s size due to different technical developments in this field of engineering.

Trip coil current s1 s4 52a y1 k9 k9 bd trip close. I a trip coil current. Vacuum circuit breaker has a high insulating medium for arc extinction as compared to the other circuit breaker. A glass vessel or ceramic vessel is used as the outer insulating body.

But still it is a developing technology. Powerpoint ppt. The movable member is connected to the control mechanism by stainless steel bellows. Chapter 2 circuit breakers 2 1 introduction a circuit breaker is required to perform the following three duties.

Circuit breaker design different breaker types will produce different data sf6 ocb live tank vacuum air 8. Construction of vacuum circuit breaker it consists of fixed contact moving contact and arc shield mounted inside a vacuum chamber. The working of vacuum circuit breakers is briefly explained below. Must be capable of carrying fault current for a short time while another breaker is clearing the fault.

It must be capable of being closed on to a fault 3. S1 s4 52a y1. In comparison to various other insulating. It must be capable of opening the faulty circuit and breaking the fault current.
