Abstract
An arc resistant air vent for a switch gear cabinet comprises a plenum stacked with spaced corrugated plates, the plates being perforated by slots at the corrugation turning points. Air and water can enter through a front grille of the vent. Air is allowed to pass through to the cabinet while water entering the vent is returned through the perforations to a bottom wall of the plenum which drains at the grille. The plates are held in frangible connections to the side walls of the plenum and the slots produce an accordion hinge to allow a release and a folding of the plates together under the pressure of an arc blast in the switchgear cabinet to seal the grille.
