Abstract
A gas circuit breaker includes: a fixed arc contact extending along an operating axis; a moving arc contact allowed to move to a position where the moving arc contact contacts the fixed arc contact and a position where the moving arc contact is separated from the fixed arc contact; a frame forming a puffer chamber around the moving arc contact; a nozzle having a cylindrical shape centered on the operating axis, the nozzle being fixed to the frame and projecting in a direction toward the fixed arc contact from the moving arc contact; and an arc extinction assisting portion provided on an inner surface of the nozzle and made of an ablation material. The nozzle and the arc extinction assisting portion are provided with a fall-off preventing portion to prevent the arc extinction assisting portion from falling off the nozzle.
