The plateau VS1 vacuum circuit breaker is specially designed for high altitude areas and has the following characteristics different from ordinary VS1 circuit breakers:
1. Insulation performance: At high altitudes, the air density decreases, resulting in reduced insulation performance. Plateau circuit breakers use higher insulation materials and designs to ensure that current can still be effectively isolated in thin air.
2. Electrical gap: Plateau circuit breakers will have a larger electrical gap to prevent the arc from crossing the distance shortened due to thin air.
3. Temperature adaptability: The temperature difference in high altitude areas is large. The plateau circuit breaker takes into account the impact of temperature on equipment performance when designing to ensure stable operation under extreme temperatures.
