Abstract
In the heavy current disconnecting switches contact system there is a set of parallel finger contacts to eliminate their welding. Alternating current distribution in contacts depends upon their number, material, dimensions, shape, and mutual location. In the paper, the effective numerical method of calculation of alternating current distribution in parallel infinite conductors is proposed within a boundary integral equation method to select these parameters optimally
