Description
Abstract
High-voltage self-blast circuit breakers often use sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) as an insulating gas to pressurize the arc during the deletion process and thus extinguish it. However, SF6 has the highest global warming potential of all known gases and degrades slowly in the atmosphere. The focus of this project is to develop a high-voltage switch that uses Eco-Gas instead of SF6.
