Abstract (en)

The invention relates to a high-tension circuit breaker insulated with dielectric self-blasting gas. <??>The circuit breaker comprising, inside a sealed insulating envelope filled with dielectric gas: - a fixed assembly comprising in particular a stationary main contact and a stationary arc contact, - a moving assembly driven by a manoeuvring linkage and comprising in particular a moving main contact and a moving arc contact, - a blasting volume prolonged by a blasting nozzle, - a blasting piston, - a pair of secondary contacts arranged in a first volume and intended to generate a secondary arc, is characterised in that it comprises first means of reducing the risks of untimely sparking due to the secondary arc and which consist of a jacket (25A) made of an insulating material and extending in line with the secondary contacts (41, 42) and in sliding contact with at least part of one (41) of the secondary contacts, the said jacket carrying longitudinal grooves (45) on the said secondary contact (41) side. <??>Application to high-tension circuit breakers. <IMAGE>
