On-load tap changer

Abstract

The invention relates to a load selector (1), comprising: a load transfer switch insert (14) having a switching tube (15) that can be rotated about an axis (A); at least one switching segment (25) fastened to the switching tube (15); and at least two vacuum interrupters (33, 34). The vacuum interrupters (33, 34) are arranged in the at least one switching segment (25). Each vacuum interrupter (33) has a movable contact in the direction of the axis (A) of the switching tube (15), which movable contact interacts with an actuating lever (45) at a free end (331) of the movable contact. According to the invention, the vacuum interrupters (33, 34) are arranged in alternately opposite directions in such a way that the movable contacts of the at least two vacuum interrupters (33, 34) can be moved in alternately opposite directions with respect to the axis (A).
