Abstract
A system for controlling a high voltage switch having at least one connect/disconnect arm, the system comprising: actuating means for displacing the at least one connect/disconnect arm; an optical position sensor for determining a position of the at least one connect/disconnect arm; and a control module operatively connected to the actuating means and adapted to dynamically adjust a speed of motion of the at least one connect/disconnect arm as a function of the position of the at least one connect/disconnect arm.
