What is difference between VCB and SF6 breaker

Answer Posted / guna

VCB - Vacuum circuit breaker, which is used at HT side of
transformer(High voltage & low current side). the arc
quenching medium is vacuum.

SF6 - sulfur hexafluoride circuit breaker, which is used at
both HT & LT side of transformer..the arc quenching medium is
SF.
