Capacitive making of double‐break vacuum circuit breaker: Transverse magnetic field contacts are superior to axial magnetic field contacts

Abstract Previous studies mainly focused on the behaviours of single‐break vacuum circuit breakers (VCBs) in switching capacitor banks. The prestrike characteristics of double‐break VCBs subjected to axial magnetic fields (AMFs) and transverse magnetic fields (TMFs) in capacitive making operations,...
