Definitions
- the invention is in the field of electrical switches and is applicable to the design and operation of a load break switch that includes a vacuum interrupter.
- the vacuum interrupters used for electrical switches - particularly in the voltage range 6 to 35 kV - generally have the following structure: an insulating, tubular housing is provided with two conductive end caps, through which two coaxial contact bolts are inserted into the housing.
- the contact bolts one of which is directly vacuum-tightly connected to one end cap and the other via a bellows to the other end cap, are provided with contact surfaces arranged on the end face (US Pat. No. 3,590,197).
- the contact surfaces are formed by special contact pieces for which a special material is used and which may have a special structural design (DE-OS 26 38 700).
- contact pieces made of ferrous material such as maraging steel or stainless chrome-nickel steel have also proven to be suitable (DE-OS 23 08 913, GB-PS 1 480 285).
- a vacuum interrupter with contact bolts made of a copper alloy which contains 0.003 to 0.5% boron and preferably also 0.1 to 1.0% bismuth it is also known that the end faces of the contact bolts themselves form the contact surfaces (GB-A-1 309 197).
- Vacuum interrupters can be used for circuit breakers as well as for load break switches and contactors. In switch disconnectors, they are only loaded with the permissible continuous operating current. Therefore, their properties cannot be fully exploited in this type of application. To the breaking capacity of vacuum interrupters used in switch disconnectors are better to use, it is already known to have a first switching contact and in series with the vacuum interrupter to arrange a second switching contact in parallel with this series connection. When the switch-disconnector is switched off, the switch contact arranged in parallel, which is designed for the full switch-disconnector nominal current, is then opened; This is followed by an interruption of the arc by means of the vacuum interrupter and finally the opening of the switching contact connected in series, which forms a visible disconnection point. - When switching on the switch disconnector, the vacuum interrupter is switched on after switching on the switching contact arranged in series or only after switching on both switching contacts (DE-OS 25 22 525).
- the vacuum interrupter consisting of an insulating, tubular housing with two conductive end caps and two coaxially opposite contact bolts with contact surfaces arranged on the end face, and one contact bolt directly with one end cap and the other Contact bolt is connected in a vacuum-tight manner via a bellows to the other end cap
- the invention is based on the novel object of designing such a load-break switch in such a way that the vacuum interrupter is essentially tailored only to the function of switching off a load current.
- the knife-like switching contact is arranged parallel to the vacuum interrupter and the other knife-like switching contact is arranged in series with the parallel connection of the vacuum interrupter and the one switching contact, and that the contact bolts are made of chromium-nickel steel and the end faces thereof Contact bolts form the contact surfaces of the vacuum interrupter.
- the vacuum interrupter is very simple, especially in the area of the contact point, since neither specially designed contact pieces nor high-quality contact materials are used; rather, the end faces of the contact bolts themselves form the contact areas.
- a commercially available steel alloy and therefore a very inexpensive material is used for the contact bolts.
- the further intended assignment of the two knife-like switching contacts to the vacuum interrupter allows, with a corresponding switching sequence of the three switching contacts, that the vacuum interrupter carries no nominal current, is not switched on to the short-circuit current and does not need to have a static dielectric strength. Accordingly, it is provided that during operation of the switch disconnector, the vacuum interrupter is kept open when the switch disconnector is switched on and in the normal switch-on position of the two switch contacts, that the contact of the vacuum interrupter is first closed to switch off the switch disconnector and that the switch contact arranged in parallel, then the contact of the Vacuum switching tube and finally the switching contact arranged in series can be opened.
- Figure 1 shows an embodiment of the vacuum interrupter used for the switch disconnector and Figure 2 shows a circuit diagram for the assignment of this vacuum interrupter to two knife-like switching contacts of a switch disconnector.
- FIG. 1 shows a vacuum interrupter, which in a known manner consists of a housing 1 in the form of a cylindrical insulator made of aluminum oxide ceramic with two end caps 2 and 3 made of oxygen-free copper and two cylindrical contact bolts 4 and 5 which are located coaxially opposite one another.
- the two end caps 2 and 3 are connected in a butt joint directly to the end faces of the housing 2 in a vacuum-tight manner by means of a soldered connection, and on the other hand directly to the contact bolt 4 or indirectly via a bellows 6 and a steam shield 7 soldered vacuum-tight to the axially movable contact pin 5.
- the movable contact pin 5 is also guided with the aid of a flange part 8 which is supported against the end cap 3.
- the contact system of the vacuum interrupter consists of the two coaxially opposite cylindrical contact pins 4 and 5, which touch in the switched-on state with their mutually facing end faces 41, 51.
- the contact pins are made of chrome-nickel steel, which is inherently poorly conductive, but also poorly welded in a vacuum and has a low gas content.
- the vacuum interrupter designed according to FIG. 1 is to be used as a load interrupter.
- it is arranged parallel to a knife-like switch contact 12 in a load-break switch and a further knife-like switch contact 11 is arranged in series with this parallel connection.
- the drive of such a switch disconnector is to be designed so that in the normal operating state of the switch the switch contact of the vacuum interrupter 10 is open, that to switch off the switch disconnector first the vacuum interrupter 10 is switched on in parallel with the switch contact 12, then the switch contact 12 is opened, then the vacuum interrupter 10 is switched off and finally the switch contact 11 is also opened. This switch-disconnector is switched on only by closing the switching contacts 11 and 12.
- Such a mode of operation has the advantage that the load-switching tube is not subjected to the switch-on short-circuit current or the nominal current and is not subject to any constant static voltage stress.
- the vacuum interrupter therefore only has to meet low dielectric, dynamic and thermal requirements will. This makes it possible to manufacture the vacuum interrupter much smaller and more cost-effectively than the conventional interrupters.
