Vacuum Circuit Breakers

Thanks to the cooperation with Siemens and Xiamen University, South China Electric has successfully developed and manufactured VSCE (I) vacuum circuit breaker. By adopting Siemens’ latest vacuum arc-extinguishing chamber and improved operating system, our vacuum interrupter ensures a good performance and has been universally used. All parts and components of our circuit breaker are precisely manufactured and well assembled, realizing an excellent coordination with minimized friction between moving parts, which is of vital importance to reliable operation. That’s why VSCE (I) vacuum circuit interrupter is featured by high insulating level, good vacuum leakproofness and exceptional endurance. This distinguished circuit interrupter has found wide application in energy infrastructure construction, power plant, commercial and residential buildings, industries and other fields.
