Arc root commutation from moving contacts in low voltage devices

This paper focus on the arc commutation from a moving contact and in particular on the anode motion of a high current arc in low voltage current limiting circuit breakers. Recent investigations have observed that the anode arc root motion is affected by arc chamber geometry. It was previously assume...
