A circuit breaker in substation is a key component in electrical power systems, designed to interrupt the flow of electricity when a fault occurs, such as a short circuit or overload. Depending on system design, these devices can operate manually or automatically and come in various types, including air, vacuum, oil, and SF₆ gas.
Circuit breakers form part of a broader substation protection and control system that includes current transformers, voltage transformers, and digital protection relays. When a relay detects an abnormality, it sends a signal to the breaker to open, thereby isolating the faulty section.
Oil (OCB) use insulating oil to suppress arcs. They are more common in legacy systems and require ongoing maintenance due to oil degradation. SF₆: These breakers, employed in high-voltage substations, use sulphur hexafluoride gas for superior arc quenching and insulation.
Restrike / Reignition: if the dielectric recovery after current zero is insufficient for the TRV applied, the arc can re-ignite, giving multiple arc events and large transient currents—this is a key reason why arrester placement and TRV capability are tightly coordinated in HV substations.
