Abstract
A current interrupter assembly includes an insulating structure, a current interrupter embedded in the structure, a conductor element embedded in the structure, a current interchange embedded in the structure and connected to create a current path between the current interrupter and the conductor element, and a semiconductive layer covering at least a portion of the conductor element so as to reduce voltage discharge between the conductor element and the structure.
Claims29
A current interrupter assembly comprising:
- a unitary molded insulating structure;
- a current interrupter embedded in the structure;
- a conductor element embedded in the structure;
- a current interchange embedded in the structure and connected to create a current path between the current interrupter and the conductor element;
- and
- a semiconductive layer at least partially embedded in the molded structure and covering at least a portion of the conductor element so as to reduce voltage discharges between the conductor element and the structure.
