Abstract :
A circuit condition has been identified that can cause interruption difficulties for 15 kV air-magnetic circuit breakers. The interaction between the system and the circuit breaker has been studied by field and laboratory tests. A solution to the problem, which assures reliable performance of the equipment, has been developed and extensively tested.
