Conventionally, vacuum switchgears such as vacuum shields and disconnectors are
As shown in the figure, a main circuit disconnecting section 1 that disconnects and connects the main circuit current from the bus bar, a vacuum valve 2 in which a contact section for turning on and off the main circuit current is enclosed in a vacuum container, and the contact section It is composed of an operating mechanism 3 for opening and closing.

In this type of vacuum switchgear, if the vacuum valve contact wears out beyond a certain limit (for example, 3 mm), the ability to turn on and off the main circuit current decreases, so the amount of vacuum valve contact wear is reduced. Monitoring is extremely important.

Therefore, conventionally, in the wipe spring section 4 that applies a constant surface pressure to the vacuum valve contact, when the vacuum valve contact is normal, the dimension L in Fig. 2 showing the details of the wipe spring section (when the vacuum switch is closed) is a predetermined dimension. However, if the vacuum valve contact wears out beyond a predetermined size, the operating lever 4b that connects the wipe spring part 4 of the vacuum valve 2 will move an extra length in the direction of the arrow by the elongated hole 4c (the operating lever 4a is shown by a dotted line), and when the valve is turned on, The dimension of the wipe spring 4a changes from L to L+W, and the wear amount of the vacuum valve contact point is detected by the change in the wipe spring dimension.

Generally, the amount of contact wear of a vacuum valve is determined by the cumulative amount of shear coulomb, and in the case of copper-based contacts, it is about 100 μg/c. Therefore, by inputting the maximum value (for example, 1 cycle) into a microcomputer from many measured values of the arc time from when the vacuum valve contact opens to when the arc is extinguished, it is possible to Contact wear amount
Wi = Ii × 10 3 × Ti × 10 -3 × 100 × 10 -6 [g] = Ii Ti × 10 -4 [g] Ti = 1 = 20ms (Ti: maximum arc time 50Hz base ) Since the allowable contact wear amount Wa is known in advance, when Σwi/Wa≧1, the microcomputer determines that the contact life has been reached and sends a signal to the external contact.
