Investigation on Potential of Floating Electrode in Modeled Vacuum Interrupter during AC Voltage Application

This paper describes about a charging characteristics of a floating electrode during unipolar AC voltage application. A model sample of Vacuum Interrupter has a floating electrode between two alumina cylinders. Two kinds of sample were prepared which are attached with or without electric field relaxation shield rings at the both side of floating electrode. A real time measurement of charging poten...
