Abstract :
The demand for higher breaker voltages and interrupting ratings created by today´s expanding energy requirements presents numerous design and test problems. A new line of high-power tubular multibreak-type interrupters has been developed, features of which include accessibility, simplicity of replacement, and a design that can be verified by part-testing or indirect testing. Design features and typical test data are given.
