Optimization of Dual Motion Mechanism with Double Grooved Cams for High-voltage Gas Circuit Breaker
Abstract:
A novel design of a dual motion mechanism for a high-voltage gas circuit breaker is presented. The contact motion of the circuit breaker due to the operating mechanism increases capacitive current switching (CCS) performance. CCS is one of the interrupting duties of the circuit breaker, where high voltage is applied during the half cycle from…

Monitoring power breakers using vibro acoustic techniques
Abstract:
Speaking about the commutation’s equipment, it can be said that the best solution in increasing reliability and lowering the maintenance costs is a continuous monitoring of the equipment. However, if the price/quality ratio is considered, it is obvious that, for the moment, the diagnosis can be also an acceptable solution. Nowadays the predictive maintenance for…
