A new electromagnetically actuated vacuum circuit breaker (VCB) has been developed for a 72kV rated switchgear. Each phase of this VCB has a plurality of compact electromagnetic actuators linked mechanically providing the required driving energy. The mechanical linkage working as a lever magnifies an actuator stroke to the required stroke of a 72kV rated vacuum interrupter. An electromagnetic analysis coupled with motion, which considers the mechanical linkage of the plural actuators, has been developed for designing the driving behavior of this VCB. Using this analytical method and a quality engineering method known as the Taguchi method, we have clarified effective parameters to reduce the time difference of the driving behavior for tolerance specifications. Moreover, analyzing the oscillatory behavior closing the contacts, a structure of this VCB has been designed to reduce the bounce duration. The developed new VCB has been confirmed that a time difference is short enough and bounce duration is reduced. This VCB is highly reliable against variations in manufacturing and environment.
