Abstract

1,054,112. Vacuum switches. ENGLISH ELECTRIC CO. Ltd. July 10, 1963 [July 12, 1962], No. 26772/62. Heading H2B. The contacts of a vacuum switch are each formed with helical slots or grooves causing the current flowing therein to follow helical paths then creating a magnetic field effective to move the arc roots radially towards outer portions of the contact surfaces and around said surfaces, said outer portions being of a metal of lower arcing voltage than inner regions. The outer portions may be formed as a flange 12c (Fig. 2, not shown) or the contacts may be of truncated conical shape. The contacts may be tubular or solid and have holes 10c, 11c formed at their centres.
