A Novel Approach to Power Circuit Breaker Design for Replacement of SF6

This contribution explores the role of PTFE ablation in enhancing current interruption for various background gases in high voltage circuit breakers. An assessment of the current interruption capability has been made in terms of the arcing duration and the contact gap length at which critical arc ex...
