Vacuum Circuit Breakers: The Future of Electrical Protection

Introduction

In electrical engineering, safety and reliability are non-negotiable. When managing high voltage systems, choosing the right protection device can determine the success of your operation. The vacuum circuit breaker (VCB) is now the preferred solution for medium-voltage networks worldwide. At Degatech Electric Co. Ltd., we produce top-tier VCBs built for endurance, precision, and sustainability.

How Vacuum Circuit Breakers Work

VCBs interrupt current using vacuum as the arc extinguishing medium. When the contacts separate, the arc quickly dissipates in the vacuum due to the absence of ionized gas—ensuring clean interruption and minimal contact erosion. This mechanism extends service life while reducing maintenance needs.

Advantages of Degatech Vacuum Circuit Breakers

  1. High Dielectric Strength: Ensures quick recovery and minimal re-ignition risk.

  2. Long Lifespan: Vacuum technology drastically reduces wear and tear.

  3. Low Maintenance: No gas refilling or frequent servicing required.

  4. Eco-Friendly: No greenhouse gases like SF₆ involved.

  5. Compact Design: Saves space in modern substations.
