Arc root mobility on piezoelectrically actuated contacts in miniature circuit breakers
A novel contact opening mechanism has been developed using a piezoelectric actuator to open the contacts in a low contact opening velocity circuit breaker. The arc control on the contacts is critical for successful current interruption (10<sup>3</sup> - 10<sup>4</sup> A) in l...
