  • Patent number: 9018558
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a gas circuit breaker switch (5) which can be integrated inside a switching device insulated in a dielectric gas, said switch (5) comprising an arc chute (1) inside which a fixed contact (3) and a moving contact (4) are arranged. The integration of the contacts (3, 4) inside at least one casing (19, 20) corresponding to the arc chute (1) allows reducing distances between phases, in addition to preventing any incident in one phase from affecting the remaining phases, and finally more compact electrical equipment is obtained. The switch (5) also comprises at least one generation means (6) for generating at least one gas, at least one blowout/intake means (7) for at least one extinguishing gas and at least one generation means (2) for generating a magnetic field, such that the electric arc generated between the contacts (3, 4) of the switch (5) can be extinguished by combining said means (6, 7, 2).

  • Patent number: 7473847
    Abstract: The coupling system is of the type composed of a connector (1) which includes an insulating envelope (2), inside which are housed some conducting elements, which incorporates a semi-conducting layer 3) on the external surface of the envelope (2). This system incorporates a protection device (6) placed around the semi-conducting layer (3). The protection device (6) can, optionally, consist of a conducting ring connected to earth that the arc length in case of a dielectric failure of the coupling system. The protection device may incorporate an inductive current gauge and/or a capacitive voltage gauge that allow obtaining various electrical magnitudes of the high-voltage equipment.
