2000A 13.8kV Vacuum Circuit Breaker, 28kA, Spring Mech
The General Electric GE-VVC-13.8-750-1L-2000A medium voltage vacuum circuit breaker is a high-performance protective device designed for switchgear applications requiring reliable fault current interruption. This vacuum circuit breaker is rated for 13.8 kV nominal voltage class with a continuous current capacity of 2000A and an interrupting rating of 750 MVA (28 kA symmetrical short-circuit current). The unit features a Basic Impulse Level (BIL) rating of 95 kV, ensuring robust insulation coordination against transient overvoltages. The stored energy spring operating mechanism provides dependable closing and opening operations with proven reliability across thousands of duty cycles. Utilizing vacuum interrupter technology, this breaker delivers clean, maintenance-friendly arc interruption with extended contact life compared to traditional air-magnetic designs. This unit is designed as a direct replacement for Direct replacement for GE Magne-Blast AM breakers in 13.8kV class breakers, enabling modernization of existing switchgear installations without costly cell modifications. Available in drawout configuration, the breaker integrates seamlessly into standard metal-clad switchgear assemblies. Fully compliant with ANSI C37.06, IEEE C37.04, IEEE C37.09, this circuit breaker meets or exceeds all applicable safety and performance requirements. Ideal applications include vacuum replacement for legacy ge magne-blast am air-magnetic breakers in existing ge metal-clad switchgear, utility and industrial power distribution. The GE-VVC-13.8-750-1L-2000A offers operators peace of mind through its proven track record of reliable performance, extensive parts availability, and full compliance with current industry safety standards for medium voltage circuit protection.
