Abstract
An improved method for quenching an arc in an AC circuit breaker having an arc chamber in which the arc rotates in a quenching medium between open electrodes having ends close together in which the arc is caused to generate during its rotation, through a heating of the quenching medium, an over-pressure which is maintained beyond the zero crossing of the AC current with the gas flow produced by the over-pressure use for blasting the arc in the nozzle. Various embodiments for use in medium and high voltage switching installations which permit the switching of large currents with a simple and inexpensive arrangement are illustrated.
