This power breaker has at least one quenching chamber, which is filled with an insulating medium, is of cylindrical design, extends along a central axis (2) and has a power current path, having two stationary consumable contact arrangements (5, 6) which are arranged on the central axis (2), are at a distance from one another in the axial direction and are arranged in the power current path. In the connected state, the consumable contact arrangements (5, 6) are electrically conductively connected by means of a moving bridging contact. An arc zone (24) is provided between the stationary consumable contact arrangements (5, 6). A rated current path, which is provided with moving rated current contacts, is arranged in parallel with the power current path. The bridging contact is arranged in the interior of the consumable contact arrangements (5, 6) extended along the central axis (2).
