Oil Circuit Breaker - Types, Construction, Working and Uses
An Oil circuit breaker aka OCB is a type of circuit breakerthat uses insulating oil as a dielectric medium to quench the arc and break the circuit safely. The oil used is insulating oil used usually transformer oil that has better dielectric strength than air. The heat produced by the arc vaporizes the oil, producing a hydrogen … 展开
When a fault condition occurs, the current-carrying contacts are separated inside the insulating oil. As the contacts separate, the high voltage difference between the contacts ionizes the medium surrounding it … 展开
The oil circuit breaker can be classified into the following two main types 1. Bulk Oil Circuit Breaker (BOCB) 2. Minimum Oil Circuit Breaker (MOCB) Bulk Oil Circuit Breaker- Such type of oil circuit breaker … 展开
During a fault condition, the arc can damage the contacts and the oil can get carbonized which decreases the dielectric strength of the oil. Consequently, its breaking capacity is reduced and the breaker may fail. Therefore, the contacts, as well as the oil, should be monitored and replaced to maintain its dielectric strength. 展开
Advantages 1. The oil used is a better arc quenching medium than air. 2. The oil used has very high dielectric strength 3. The dielectric strength of the oil increase with the increase in pressure. 4. The arc energy is utilized to vaporize the oil to increase its pressure. 5. The oil is also used as insulation between live and earthed parts. 6. The... 展开
