Interruption principle VACUUM ARC • Vacuum arc is initiated by the separation of current carrying contacts and is maintained till the current zero • Two types of vacuum arc - Diffuse & Contracted DIFFUSE TYPE • It occurs while interrupting the rated current • Single melting points form on the entire surface of the cathode producing metal vapours which support the arc • The diffuse vacuum arc is characterised by expansion over the contact surface and by an even distribution of thermal stress over the contacts surfaces. • Negligible contact erosion
Interruption principle CONTRACTED TYPE • Higher the interruption current, the arc tends to be transformed from the diffuse into the contracted type due to the Hall effect • The arc contracts at the anode and as the current increases further it tends to become sharply defined. In this area there is an increase in temperature with consequent thermal stress on the contact.
Interruption principle SPIRALCONTACTS • To prevent overheating and contact erosion, the arc is kept rotating • The special geometry of the spiral contacts generates a radial magnetic field in all the areas of the arc column • An electromagnetic force is self generated and acts tangentially causing rapid arc rotation around the contact axis. The arc is forced to rotate and to involve a wider surface than that of a fixed controlled arc • Apart from minimising thermal stress, contact erosion also is reduced which makes high short circuit current interruption possible. • Maximum dielectric strength is restored within micro- seconds as the rapid reduction of current charge and rapid condensation of the metal vapours happens simultaneously along with the current zero.
