Abstract :
A 138-kv 10,000-mva air-blast circuit breaker, believed to be the first 2-cycle breaker for transmission-line voltages, was recently developed and field tested. It interrupted both transmission-line and bus faults while mounted on the trailer on which it was shipped. The rating is based on the proposed symmetrical-rating structure
