Features: This book is the second edition of "Vacuum Switchgear." Based on a systematic exposition of vacuum arc theory, it focuses on introducing the design principles, structural characteristics, and development trends of advanced medium-voltage vacuum switchgear designed abroad in recent years, as well as representative domestic products of the same type (such as vacuum circuit breakers, vacuum load switches, vacuum contactors, and vacuum switchgear in two major categories: air-insulated and SF6 gas-insulated). Additionally, the book discusses technical issues encountered during the operation of vacuum switchgear, including operational overvoltage, vacuum degree measurement, X-ray radiation, insulation characteristics, and the suppression of operational overvoltage in control circuits. The book is divided into four chapters, covering the development and physical foundation of vacuum switchgear, common vacuum switchgear, vacuum switchgear units and related technical issues, and the operation of vacuum switchgear units. It is intended for power engineering design personnel and switch users and operators, as well as serving as a reference for vacuum switchgear designers, manufacturers, and sales personnel.
