Novel DC current interruption technology based on the instability of vacuum arc under composite transverse magnetic fields

Abstract The objective of this work intends to propose a novel current interruption technology in vacuum for LVDC power systems, based on the instability of vacuum arc under composite transverse magnetic fields (TMFs). The interruption characteristics were experimentally determined in an overdamping...
