China Suspends Circuit Breakers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Circuit breakers are designed to slow down (or even halt) panicked selling. However, Chinese authorities recently suspended their newly implemented circuit breakers, as they seemed to be increasing panic (as opposed to reducing it).

Post‐Arc Transient Dielectric Recovery Characteristics of Vacuum Interrupter in the Large‐Capacity Generator Circuit Breaker

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Large‐capacity generator circuit breaker (GCB) based on vacuum interrupter technology is the key power equipment to ensure the safe operation of the power system. When the short‐circuit current was forced to cross zero, the large‐capacity GCB was difficult to generate a zero‐voltage environment through freewheeling, the vacuum interrupter (VI)

Circuit breakers with uncertainty about the presence of informed agents: I know what you know . . . I think [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
This study conducts experimental asset markets to examine the effects of circuit breaker rules on market behavior when agents are uncertain about the presence of private information. Our results unequivocally indicate that circuit breakers fail to temper

Field - Effect Switching in Nano-Graphite Films

open access: yes, 2013
The effect of electrical resistivity switching in nanographite films is described. In difference with cases published elsewhere the switching in nanographite films occurs from stable high conductive to metastable low conductive state. Critical current of

Influence of Arc Faults on Pressure Production Characteristics in AC Turret of UHV Transformers

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The overpressure caused by arc fault in the oil tank can lead to a transformer explosion. Since the AC turret of transformers serves to connect the transformer windings with the AC busbar, the arc current can be extremely high if an earth fault arc occurs leading to potentially hazardous pressure.

Fault Diagnosis of High-Voltage Circuit Breakers Using Mechanism Action Time and Hybrid Classifier

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
Accurate fault diagnosis of high-voltage circuit breakers is crucial for the safety of power grids. Mechanism action time, though can reflect the state of high-voltage circuit breakers, is usually difficult to obtain, as multiple sensors are required for
