Abstract: A fixation system in use for medium or high voltage switching poles, insulators, circuit breakers, or general devices includes: an insulating housing provided with holes, in which screws are screwed into, in order to fix the device on a support, or a further housing. Inner surfaces of the holes are covered with a conductive layer or layers covering the inner surfaces at least partly. The conductive layers extend toward outside the holes. The conductive layers are conductively connected or connectable to ground potential.

Abstract: A three-position disconnector switch includes an earthing contact, a power out contact, a power in contact, a piston, and a threaded rod. A length of the piston is such that in a first switch position an outer surface of a wall of the piston makes an electrical contact between the power out contact and the power in contact. The length of the piston is such that in a second switch position the outer surface of the wall of the piston does not make an electrical contact with either the earthing contact or the power in contact. The length of the piston is such that in a third switch position the outer surface of wall of the piston makes an electrical contact between the earthing contact and the power out contact. The piston includes an inner threaded section configured to engage with the threaded rod.

Abstract: An earthing module for a switchgear includes: a cylinder; a piston; a stored energy unit; and at least one photovoltaic cell. The cylinder connects to a part of a switchgear at earth potential. The piston moves within the cylinder from a standby position to a released position along an axis of the cylinder. When in the released position, the piston is in electrical connection with the cylinder. The stored energy unit is located within or associated with the earthing module such that activation of the stored energy unit moves the piston from the standby position to the released position. One or more of the at least one photovoltaic cell activates the stored energy unit based on radiation from an electrical arc of the switchgear impinging upon the one or more of the at least one photovoltaic cell.

Abstract: A vacuum interrupter includes: one movable contact fixed on a movable contact stem; and one fixed contact with a fixed contact stem. The fixed contact and the movable contact are located in a electrically insulating tube, which is vacuumtightly closed by metal lids at boths sides. The fixed contact stem is placed vacuumtightly on one of the metal lids, and the movable contact stem is guided trough an opening of the opposite metal lid via an axially extendable vacuumtight bellow. In order to create a twist protection of the movable contact stem, a ring disc shaped plastic part with a central opening, through which the movable contact stem is guided, is connected externally to the vacuum interrupter such that inner spanner flats inside the opening complementarily fit closely to external spanner flats of the movable contact stem.

Abstract: A circuit breaker includes first and second terminals, first and second interrupters, an interconnection part, an actuator, an operating rod, and a lever system. The first terminal is electrically connected to a fixed contact of the first vacuum interrupter. The second terminal is electrically connected to a fixed contact of the second vacuum interrupter. The interconnection part is configured to be in electrical connection with a movable contact of the first vacuum interrupter and the interconnection part is configured to be in electrical connection with a movable contact of the second vacuum interrupter. The interconnection part is configured to provide a current path between the movable contacts. In a transition from an open state to the closed state, the actuator is configured to move the operating rod to move the second end of the first non-linear lever arm and the second end of the second non-linear lever arm.
