An actuator for a high-speed switch is proposed. The actuator can include a frame having multiple mounting plates and columns. The mounting plates have parts installed thereon or movably supported thereby. The columns maintain the space between the mounting plates. A permanent magnet is installed on one of the mounting plates so as to face the second driving plate, and an elastic member is installed on the mounting plate that faces the mounting plate having the permanent magnet installed thereon, so as to provide force for the movement of the second driving plate.

Actuator for high-speed switch

Provided is a high voltage DC circuit breaker that interrupts a fault current flowing through a high voltage DC transmission line with a vacuum circuit breaker and a gas circuit breaker connected in series. The circuit breaker includes: a vacuum circuit breaker installed on a DC transmission line and operating to interrupt a current in the DC transmission line when a fault occurs on either side of the DC transmission line; a gas circuit breaker connected in series with the vacuum interrupter; an LC circuit connected in parallel with the vacuum circuit breaker and including a capacitor and a reactor connected in series to induce LC resonance; a first bidirectional switching device connected in series with the LC circuit and switching a current flowing in any of two opposite directions; and a second bidirectional switching device connected in parallel with the LC circuit.

High voltage DC circuit breaker

An electromagnetic repulsion actuator for a circuit breaker is provided. The actuator can include a housing; a first fixed electrode having therein an operating space open at both sides; a pair of movable electrodes capable of reciprocally moving and being electrically connected to the first fixed electrode; second fixed electrodes selectively contacting the pair of movable electrodes to be electrically connected thereto, thereby transferring power supplied from a first side to a second side; and actuating coils selectively moving the movable electrodes in a direction of being separated from the second fixed electrodes by generating electromagnetic force from induced current. In the present invention as above, the structure of a circuit breaker is simplified and moving speeds of the movable electrodes are increased since the movable electrodes move by using induced current generated by a close coil and open coils to perform an open operation.
