Gases released from polymers placed near a burning electric arc are known to influence the behavior of the arc. In switching equipment, such ablation materials can be used to improve the interrupting capability. Current interruption experiments have been carried out with the purpose of comparing the arc-quenching capabilities of four common polymers. The test setup has static electrodes and two ablation...
The arc quenching and current interruption performance of four common polymers are experimentally studied. Each material is tested according to an “up-and-down” statistical procedure in order to determine the current that gives 50 % probability for interruption. The experimental ablation rig has two static electrodes, with ablation polymer plates near the electrodes. The current source is a capacitor...
