Summary :

Two dimensional optical fiber measurement system is used to investigate experimentally the arc motion and reignition with four different configurations of quenching chamber in an AC contactor. It demonstrates that the splitter plate arrangement has significant effect on the arc motion in arc quenching chamber, and fixing arc runner in the first and last splitter plates benefits to arc motion, and increase the dielectric recovery strength. The results are very useful to design the quenching chamber in AC contactor with high performance.
