Abstract
A switching module for use in a high voltage switch includes: a vacuum interrupter (VI), an elastomeric insulating sleeve disposed around the VI; an insulating housing molded around the VI and the sleeve; and a pair of grading capacitors. Each grading capacitor includes an inner and an outer electrode while insulation between the electrodes is solid insulation of the housing molded at the time when the housing is molded. One of the electrodes is galvanically connected to the fixed contact through a first terminal in the switching module and the other electrode is galvanically connected to the moving contact through a second terminal in the switching module. The capacitance of the first grading capacitor is substantially equal to the capacitance of the second grading capacitor.
