Capacitive coupling-type arc extinguishing circuit and apparatus having same

Abstract

The invention relates to a capacitive coupling-type arc-extinguishing circuit and an apparatus. The capacitive coupling-type arc-extinguishing circuit includes a thyristor which is connected to two ends of a mechanical switch in parallel, where a driving signal for driving the thyristor to switch on is transferred from a main loop of the thyristor to a control electrode of the thyristor by using a capacitor; and a driving signal loop of the control electrode of thyristor is connected to at least an electronic switch. The capacitive coupling-type arc-extinguishing circuit and the apparatus have the advantages of the good arc-extinguishing effect, and high reliability. The apparatus includes a control circuit connected with the electronic switch of capacitive coupling-type arc-extinguishing circuit, have the advantage of short conduction time of the thyristor.
