12KV 630A VS1 Indoor High Voltage AC Solid-state vacuum circuit breakers water proof IP68
"The vacuum circuit breaker is named after the high vacuum of its interrupting medium and the insulation medium of the contact gap after interrupting; it has the advantages of small size, light weight, suitable for frequent operation and interrupting without maintenance, and is more popularly used in the distribution network. The vacuum circuit breaker is an indoor power distribution device in the 3-10kV, 50Hz three-phase AC system, which can be used for the protection and control of electrical equipment in industrial and mining enterprises, power plants and substations, and is especially suitable for places requiring oil-free, less maintenance and frequent operation.
According to the different types of switches there are external shield type ceramic vacuum interrupters, intermediate sealed cup type longitudinal magnetic field miniaturised vacuum interrupters, internal sealed glass bubble interrupters, the basic structure of which is as follows.
①Gas-tight insulation system (shell)
②Conductive system

Working Principle
The working principle of the vacuum circuit breaker is: when the movable and static contacts are divided under the action of the operating mechanism, an electric arc is generated between the contacts, and the surface of the contacts volatilizes steam at high temperature, due to the special shape of the contact design, a magnetic field is generated when the current passes through, the arc moves rapidly along the tangential direction of the contact surface under the action of this magnetic field, and some of the metal steam condenses on the metal cylinder (shield), and the arc is extinguished when it naturally crosses zero. The arc is extinguished, and the dielectric strength between the contacts is rapidly restored
