Abstract :
This second installment of a three-part article focuses on circuit-breaker characteristics of general importance, independent of the arc medium chosen. A systematic, though necessarily incomplete, schedule of decisions to be made in the course of the development of one new breaker type will show the complexity of the problems involved.
