Abstract
Improvement of the peak current interruption performance of a vacuum interrupter is obtained by configuring the conductive leads to the vacuum interrupter in a manner whereby the magnetic field generated by current in the conductive leads and impinging upon the space between a pair of contacts of the vacuum interrupter is minimized, thereby resulting in better performance of the vacuum interrupter.
