What is difference between VCB and SF6 breaker
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / 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.

Answer / avinash pralhad nikam
The arc quenching capacity of SF6 is more than the vaccum. also sf6 has more IR value than that of vaccume . also sf6 is more electronegative than vaccum.

Answer / vidya sagar reddy
In VCB the arc quenching media is Vaccume. We can use up to 33KV. SF 6 arc quenching media is Sulfur hexa fluoride gas. Which is very effective comparing with VCB. Available only above 33KV.

When testing an earthing connection, we use a 60 or 100 candle bulb with a phase connected direct from supply and the other wire to the new earthing provided.If the bulb glows then the earth is ok.Else earth connection is not Ok. So, why dont we can use all the home appliances taking a single wire from the phase and the return connection to Earth instead of return connection to neutral?
