Abstract
This invention relates to a novel vacuum interrupter. The aim of the invention is for said is for said interrupter to perform the functions switching, disconnection and earthing and to be economically producible. Said aim is achieved by means of a first contact system produced with radial- or axial-magnetic filed contacts, the movable contact of which is connected to the movable contact of a second contact system, comprising annular discs. The stationary contact of the second contact system forms an annular part of the housing to which two tubular insulators are connected. One of the insulators encloses both contact systems and is protected by a screen fixed to the movable contact piece, which separates the plasma physics of the both contact systems.
