Interrupter unit
The main circuit of an interrupter unit consists of the high-voltage terminal 22.22, the socket 22.32, the contact
carrier 22.31, the contact laminations 22.3 arranged in rings in the contact carrier, the heat cylinder 22.41, the
inner socket 22.23 and the gearbox 21.1.
The contact laminations 22.3 support themselves centrically from the contact carrier 22.31 inwards to the heating
cylinder 22.41. The internal stress of the contact laminations 22.3 generates the necessary contact pressure from
the contact carrier 22.31 onto the heating cylinder 22.41.
