Vacuum Circuit Breaker (VCB)

Call for Price

A Vacuum Circuit Breaker (VCB) is a switching device that can turn electrical equipment or circuits on and off, either manually or automatically, in normal or emergency situations. VCBs are designed for medium voltages of over 1 kV and work by quenching electric arcs. 

Some fundamental tests for high voltage circuit breakers include:
  • Main circuit dielectric test
  • Main circuit resistance test
  • Auxiliary and control circuit tests
  • Tightness tests
  • O-C timing test
  • Coil resistance test
  • DCRM test
  • Travel tests
