An operating modes selector is for an earthing switch that includes power contacts and a motor for moving the power contacts. The selector includes a plurality of positions corresponding respectively to various operating modes of the earthing switch, and includes cams whose positions are defined by the selector position. The selector contains a first cam which pulls a first locking organ designed to mechanically block the motor of the earthing switch when the selector is in a position corresponding to a locked closed mode wherein the earthing switch is closed.

An interlock system for a low, medium or high voltage switchgear includes: a compartment; a door; a door handle; and a circuit breaker. The door permits access to an inside of the compartment. The door handle opens and closes the door. The circuit breaker is located in the compartment. The door handle is movable from a closed position to an open position. When the door handle is in the closed position, the door does not to open, and when the door handle is in the open position, the door opens. A movement of the door handle from the closed position to the open position places the circuit breaker in a locked configuration. In the

A door interlock device for a power transformer room in a vacuum circuit breaker includes a cam disposed on a shaft of a ground switch, a supporter disposed on a side plate of a power transformer room, a shaft disposed at the supporter to be slidable and having one end contacting the cam to be upward and downward movable, a spring disposed within the supporter to provide an upward elastic force to the shaft, and an interlock plate disposed at one side of the power transformer room door and configured to be in contact with the shaft.

The present invention relates to an arc eliminator, and more particularly, to an arc eliminator with an earth contact. An arc eliminator comprises: a housing; an extinguisher installed on the housing; and an earth contact that is installed on the housing and protrudes out from the housing in such a way as to be connected to the ground bus bar provided inside a distribution board when the extinguisher is moved to a first position where the extinguisher is connected to a fixed bus bar provided inside the distribution board, and to be disconnected from the ground bus bar when the extinguisher is moved to a second position where the extinguisher is disconnected from the fixed bus bar.
