ABSTRACT:
An electrical circuit breaker comprising a pair of switches 40 connected in series in a power line L, a pair of drive coils 42 disposed adajcent the switches for electromagnetically repelling them when energized, and a remotely positioned transformer 44, 46 for energizing the coils, all disposed within grounded main and auxilliary tanks 38, 48 filled with a compressed, arc-suppressing gas. The primary winding of the transformer is energized by a storage capacitor 52 discharging through a spark gap 50 arced by a synchronous detector 62 and a pulse converter 58 in response to a line overage sensed by a coil 64 or an external control signal, and these latter components are disposed outside of the high voltage tanks.
