- the circuit breaker is put under the most severe condition when the circuit breaker has to interrupt a small capacitive current, because a maximum recovery voltage, two or more times larger than the rated phase-to-ground voltage, is applied between the contacts at about 0.5 cycle after the initiation of the interrupting operation where the distance between the contacts is not necessarily enough to withstand the recovery voltage.
- An insulation nozzle with a small downstream divergent angle, for example 20°, is also known to be suitable for the circuit breaker of a higher interrupting voltage, but the interrupting current thereof is limited, because the hot gas generated by an arc between the contacts is sometimes ineffectively exhausted through the insulation nozzle so that an electrical breakdown between contacts takes place particularly during a large fault current interrupting operation of the circuit breaker.
