Load Break Switch: Evaluation of Breaking & Making Capabilities
Among several switching devices largely used in medium voltage distribution systems, which change the grid configuration, isolates faulty parts from the grid, etc. Load break switch is a remarkable one. For the reason to analyse the interrupting capabilities, load break switch rated up to 52kV has to undergo various test duties according to IEC 62271-103. This article focuses on the parameters involved in evaluation of its behaviour during make-break tests. - Yugal Agrawal, K.Sharath kumar
