Abstract :
A synthetic laboratory circuit for arc interruption research is described. The ability of this circuit to simulate many power system fault conditions is shown. The important role it has in the development of new circuit breaker interrupters is presented. Results of some experimental studies on arc interruption are reported and discussed.
