appeared across the breaker, the voltage distribution is determined by the capacitance relationships of the various This paper discusses the need for good distribution of parts. If all capacitances except those across the gaps the voltage among the interrupters of a high-voltage could be eliminated, there would be only a simple series multibreak circuit breaker and the results which have circuit composed of equal capacitances. If a voltage were been obtained using capacitances.applied across them it would divide equally between the various gaps and this division would be unaffected by the relative potential of the ground.
