Abstract

A method for controlling a power switching apparatus to solve problems including: setting a target time reaching a predetermined position immediately before a target phase by a time calculator during an opening and closing operation of a movable arc contact with respect to a fixed arc contact in a target phase at a predetermined average switching speed; and controlling an electric motor at a speed equal to or less than an average switching speed immediately before the target phase from an operation start time to the target time by a motor controller.
