What is a vacuum circuit breaker (VCB)?
A vacuum circuit breaker interrupts current inside a sealed vacuum interrupter, which needs little maintenance and contains no greenhouse gas. VCBs are the standard breaker in Chinese medium-voltage switchgear, sold as indoor withdrawable units (for example the VS1 or ZN63 series at 12 kV) or as outdoor pole-mounted reclosers.
What buyers compare
- Rated voltage and rated current
- Rated short-circuit breaking current (kA)
- Mechanical endurance (operations)
- Indoor withdrawable or outdoor pole-mounted
- Standard: IEC 62271-100
