The vacuum interrupter (30) is rigidly connected to the u pper
terminal ang le (27.1) and pole s u pport (20) by its terminal post
(31.2). The lower part of the interrupter is stabilized 2gainst
lateral forces by a centering ring (28.1) on the pole su pport
(40). The external forces d u e to switching operations and the
contact pressure are absorbed by the struts (28).
Current-Path Assembly (Figure 6)
The current-path assembly consists of the u pper terminal an­
gle, 27.1. and pole s u p port. 20, th e stationary contact, 31, and
the moving contact, 36, which is con nected with the lower ter­
minal, 29, by terminal clam p , 29 2, and a flexible shunt. 29.1.

The Arc-Quenching Principle
When the contacts separate, the cu rrent to be interrupted ini­
tiates an ionized metal vapor arc discharge and flows through
this plasma until the next cu rrent zero. The arc is then extin­
g u ished and the condu ctive metal vapor condenses on the
metal s u rfaces of the arcing chamber, (33), ( Fig . 7) within a
matter of microsecond s . As a result, the dielectric strength in
the increasing contact gap builds up very rapidly.
Below a limit of about 10,000 amperes, the arc is distributed
across the contacts and the arc is easily interru pted. At cur­
rents larger than about 10,000 amperes the arcs own electro­
magnetic forces cause the arc to contract to essentially a point
arc. If the contracted arc is allowed to remain stationary, it ov­
erheats the contacts at the arc roots to the point where the
molten metal vapor does not al low the dielectric to rebuild d u r­
ing the cu rrent zero and large magnitude currents could not
be interrupted .
