Vacuum technology applied to circuit breakers for 34.5-kV metal-clad switchgear offers significant advantages over equipment of previous design. Substation size, a major consideration to the 34.5-kV distribution system designer, is further reduced when vacuum equipment is specified. Vacuum equipment versatility is evidenced by the growing number of substation circuit configurations being implemented. Improved interruption capabilities, longer life and reduced maintenance are features offered by vacuum. These many features assure vacuum equipment a prominent position in future substation designs in this voltage class.
