  • Patent number: 5254816
    Abstract: According to this invention, there is disclosed a compact power circuit breaker having a large breaking capacity and stable breaking performance due to a compact closing resistor unit having high performance. The power circuit breaker includes a main switching mechanism having an arc extinguishing function, an auxiliary switching mechanism parallelly connected to the main switching mechanism and having an arc extinguishing function, and a closing resistor unit connected in series with the auxiliary switching mechanism and incorporated with a resistor containing zinc oxide (ZnO) as a main component and titanium figured out as titanium oxide (TiO.sub.2) in an amount of 0.5 to 25 mol% and nickel figured out as nickel oxide (NiO) in an amount of 0.5 to 30 mol. % as sub-components.
