Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0684622A1] The circuit breaker includes an insulating envelope 91), filled with a dielectric gas, and housing two arc contacts (3A,7A) attached to a mobile contact operated by an actuator (6). The mobile contact is placed axially inside the envelope and includes a tube (7), terminated with one of the arc contacts (7A). A second tube (8) is coaxial to the first one and attached to a crown (9) which links the two tubes. An expansion chamber (17) closed by a nozzle (10) communicates with a compression chamber via a one-way value. <IMAGE>
