An axial magnetic field (AMF) applied to the vacuum arc column in the vacuum tube can make the vacuum arc keeping in diffusion state, even if it is interrupting the short circuit current. In this paper a novel AMF contact with asymmetric structure has been present. In principle, the necessary axial magnetic field would be created by two coils in series behind the static contact plate. The axial magnetic...
