Definitions
- the invention provides an electrical apparatus for a high voltage electrical power transmission line, such as an earthing switch, a disconnector or a circuit breaker, including means for delaying the moment of appearance of an arc. during a closing phase of the electrical equipment and to limit the duration of such an arc during a closing phase or opening of the electrical equipment.
- a high voltage electrical power transmission line such as an earthing switch, a disconnector or a circuit breaker
- An electrical apparatus for a high voltage electrical power transmission line such as for example a disconnector for a high voltage transmission line is a safety device which aims to establish electrical isolation between live parts.
- the electrical equipment comprises an upstream contact and a downstream contact, which are able to be brought into contact or to be separated, depending on whether or not an electrical connection is to be established between the two parts under tension.
- the apparatus also comprises an electrically conductive closed enclosure, in which the contacts are received, and this enclosure is filled with an electrically insulating gas such as, for example, sulfur hexafluoride SF6 or a gaseous mixture under pressure, to limit the formation of the electric arc.
- an electrically insulating gas such as, for example, sulfur hexafluoride SF6 or a gaseous mixture under pressure
- arcs are formed between the two contacts. These arcs between contacts may have radial branches which, under certain conditions, may propagate radially and reach the surrounding conductive enclosure.
- a solution that makes it possible in part to limit the appearance of the radial branches of the electric arcs consists in increasing the speed of movement of the moving contact.
- this involves designing large training means dimensions, thus increasing the cost of fitting.
- the rapid opening of a disconnector on a portion of vacuum bar sets can induce a so-called "trapped" electrical charge which is greater than in the case of a slow maneuver. This increases the likelihood of an arc developing towards the tank at the next closing maneuver.

Also, the movable downstream contact makes it possible to make the electrical connection of the downstream electrode with the upstream electrode indirectly via the upstream contact, then directly, during a closing phase of the apparatus.
- the downstream contact has an outer cylindrical face which is in contact with an inner cylindrical face complementary to the upstream electrode when the downstream contact is in contact with the upstream contact and with the upstream electrode.
