ABSTRACT:
An inventive vacuum interrupter exhibits a high interruption performance. The interrupter includes a metal end plate constituting part of its vacuum envelope, and a coil disposed outside the vacuum envelope and near the metal end plate and generating an axial magnetic field parallel to a path of an arc in an arcing gap between a pair of separable contact within the vacuum envelope. The contact near the coil is made of a material superior in interruption performance to the end plate and is mounted with a clearance onto the end plate. The clearance is at least 2 mm and at most 30% of the diameter of the coil-side contact.
