Abstract
The paper relates the voltage escalation due to repetitive reignition occurring when interrupting the inductive current by vacuum switches, and offers a new theory quite different from those recognized hitherto on the generating mechanism. It also shows that a CR Surge Suppressor is effective for suppressing the voltage escalation.
