ACB means "AIR CIRCUIT BREAKER" it is a Electrical power
supply protection equipment when fault occur in the system.
It is used in the Low Voltage application. The power supply
mechanical contacts are kept in the atmospheric air at the
time of fault, the breaker will trip the generated electric
arc ia quenched by the air.
VCB means " VACCUM CIRCUIT BREAKER " it is also same
equipment but used in the High Voltage application ( 11kv -
33kv ), here the power supply mechanical contacts are kept
in the vaccum sealed bottle, the vaccum will quench the arc
at the time faulty trip. The electric arc generation is
high when comparing with the ACB
