Vacuum Circuit Breakers

e. X-r

AyS

When high voltage is applied across the

contacts of a vacuum interrupter, there is the

possibility of generation of X-rays. The intensity

of the X-radiation is dependent on the peak

voltage and the contact gap. At the normal

operating voltage for this type of equipment,

the radiation levels are negligible. At the

voltages specified for testing, test personnel

shall be in front of the circuit breaker such that

the two layers of steel used in the frame and

front cover construction are between the test

personnel and the vacuum interrupters, and

that the test personnel be no closer than one

meter (3’) from the front of the circuit breaker.

THE CIRCUIT BREAKER SHALL BE EITHER

FULLY OPEN, OR FULLY CLOSED WHEN

MAKING HIGH POTENTIAL TESTS. DO NOT

TEST WITH CONTACTS PARTIALLY OPEN.
