Abstract

541,496. Gas blast - switches. BRITISH THOMSON-HOUSTON CO., Ltd. July 8, 1940, No. 11394. Convention date, July 8, 1939. [Class 38 (v)] One break 2 of a multi-break switch having nozzle-contacts is shunted, when opened, by a resistance 14 adapted to reduce the rate of recovery-voltage, the reduced current being interrupted at the subsequently-produced break 1, subjected, to a comparatively limited blast through a small nozzle. The normal carrying capacity of movable contact 5' is increased by auxiliary contacts 5" and the circuit between memlbers 5, 6 is completed by the structure 7<SP>1</SP>, bar 8 being of insulating material. The Specification as open to inspection under Sect. 91 states also that the breaks may be formed simultaneously. This subject-matter dose not appear in the Specification as accepted.
