Abstract: An AMF contact for a vacuum interrupter includes concentric opposing contact pieces. The contact pieces include an external electrode shaped like a coil with a plate as a bottom plate of the external electrode, which generates a strong axial magnetic field, and an inner internal electrode as a top electrode carrying the nominal current. To enable the outer electrode to generate the axial magnetic field as requested for an application, a rod is arranged between the top electrode and the bottom plate. A first end of the rod is fixed at a lower side of the top electrode, and a second end of the rod is guided through an opening of the bottom plate. The second end of the rod has an extended head which locks or tightens the rod in a defined axial position. The disclosed embodiments are applicable for standard AMF or TMF (cup) contacts to reinforce them.

Abstract: A system and method for point on wave closing of a switching device, where the close initiation point is selected so that a minor current loop is generated that minimizes the accumulated current during the closing operation. The method includes determining bounce characteristic of contacts in the switching device during the closing operation, identifying available close initiation points on a voltage wave for a voltage across the contacts, selecting one or two of the close initiation points on the voltage wave that minimizes the accumulation of current during the closing operation, and closing the switching device using the selected close initiation point.

Abstract: A contact element for a power switch which, in order to open or close the switch, cooperates with an opposite element, with a transitory rotating electric arc forming between the contact element and the opposite element when the switch is operated. The contact element has an electrode part which includes a portion made of an electrically conductive material. This portion defines a contact surface, with the electrode part having a defined width and being curved in the direction of the width to have the form of an open loop having a connecting end and a free end. A current may be introduced approximately tangentially to the open loop at its connecting end, and the free end is spaced from the connecting end in the direction toward the interior of the loop by a distance which is less than the defined width.
