[ Compasion table for VCB (Short circuit test) ]
High interrupting performance
�Make short of the interrupting time. (3cycles)
�Increase the rated short-circuit withstand
characteristics. (1sec. to 3sec.)
VACUUM CIRCUIT BREAKER
Compasion table for VCB (Short circuit test)
High reliability of the operating mechanism
- Separate design of the main circuit from the
operating mechanism.
- Adopt the toggle link method.
- Improved the reliability of electric circuit.
- Adopt the rapid auto-reclosing method as a
standard option. (O-0.3sec.-CO-3min.-CO)
Great operational safety
�Reinforce the insulation in the conduct, by adopting the
molded housing in each phase.
�Built in the device making the contacts open first when
draw in and out.
�Adopt the tulip-shape connection between the cradle and
the VCB.

Structure

The internal components of a typical Vacuum Interrupter are shown in Figure1.

LS Vacuum Interrupter consists of a ceramic insulator, two end plates, arc shield,
bellows, a movable and fixed electrode, and contact set.
The ambient gas pressure within the evacuated tube is
approximately 10-6 torr.

Vacuum Interrupter
Operating characteristics

In the closed position, normal current flows through

the interrupter. When a fault occurs and interruption
is required, the contacts are quickly separated.
The arc drawn between the surfaces of contacts is
Current path rapidly moved around the slotted contact surface
by self induced magnetic effects, preventing gross
contact erosion and the formation of hot spot on
the surface.
Driving force on
The arc burns in an ionized metal vapor, which
the high current condenses on the surrounding metal shield. At
ARC current zero the arc extinguishes and vapor
ARC production ceases.
The metal vapor plasma is very rapidly dispersed,
cooled, recombined, and deionized, and the metal
vapor products are quickly condensed so that the
contacts withstand the transient recovery voltage.

Vacuum Circuit Breaker
Power Plants
A product developed for water and thermal power plants due
to the revision and application of Kepco’s standard (ES150)
followed by the IEC standard revision. It has completed the
high capacity (40~50kA) VCB series for power plants by
securing higher breaking capacity, safety and reliability.

VCB Full Option

To prevent fatal error, property and life loss caused from operator during
operation, it is equipped with safety mechanisms such as shutter padlock.

Bushing applied for Window CT adaptation

The bushing provides sufficient strength to collaborate with the internal insulation and is
adaptable with CT offering safety mechanically and electrically when applying large current.
