VM1 Circuit Breakers

 ABB VM1 ABB MV indoor vacuum circuit breaker

Extra performances in demanding duties

VM1 circuit breakers are used in primary power distribution for control and protection of cables, overhead lines, substations, motors, transformers, generators, capacitor banks, in plants in chemical industries, steelworks, automobile industries, airports, large buildings, and shopping malls. The magnetic drive activates the moving contacts of the interrupters and integrates all the functions of a traditional drive.

Product scope

Medium voltage circuit breakers with magnetic actuator for primary distribution up to 24 kV, 3150 A (4000*), 50 kA.
