Abstract :
PERFORMANCE of different types of breaker contacts, and rates of recovery-voltage rise, are the principal items receiving particular attention in this analysis of the Philo circuit breaker tests. As stated previously the rate of recovery-voltage rise was manipulated by varying the number of lines connected to the Philo station bus.
