MGVCL Exam Paper (30-07-2021 Shift 3)
The purpose of ____ is to check the ability of the circuit breaker to withstand the overvoltages at power frequency as well as undesired value of voltage during lightning and other discharge phenomenon.
Die-electric test on Circuit breaker: These tests are performed to check power frequency and impulse voltage withstand capacity. Power frequency tests are kept on a new circuit breaker, the test voltage changes with a circuit breaker rated voltage. In impulse tests, impulse voltage of particular value is employed to the breaker.
1.6 inches = 1.6 inches x 1,000 mils per inch = 1,600 mils 0.25 inch = 0.25 inch x 1,000 mils per inch = 250 mils Area = 1,600 x 250 = 400,000 square mils

Symmetrical breaking current is the moment when fault occurs maximum fault current is observed and decays with respect to time. Symmetrical breaking current = RMS value of ac component of short circuit current at the instant of separation of the contacts. Symmetrical breaking capacity is less than asymmetrical breaking capacity.
