ABSTRACT:
In a gas insulated disconnecting switch, a movable contact assembly comprises a stationary cylinder, a coaxial cylindrical movable conductive contact, and a coaxial rod-shaped movable arc electrode. A compression chamber is formed between the stationary cylinder and the movable conductive contact. A damping chamber is formed between the movable conductive contact and the movable arc electrode. Because of controlled flow of gas into and out of these chambers, the speed at which the movable arc electrode is brought into contact with the stationary arc electrode is restricted and possibility of breakage of the arc electrodes is eliminated.
