Gas circuit breaker
A gas circuit breaker to reduce deterioration of insulation and current-breaking performance thereof includes a sealed container (8) filled with arc-extinguishing gas. A first fixed contactor portion (2) and a second fixed contactor portion (4) are fixed to the sealed container (8). A movable contactor portion (3) moves between the first fixed contactor portion (2) and the second fixed contactor portion (4) and conducts and breaks current between the first fixed contactor portion (2) and the second fixed contactor portion (4). An arc is generated between a fixed arc contactor (21) provided to the first fixed contactor portion (2) and a movable arc contactor (31) provided to the movable contactor portion (3) when current breaking action is extinguished by an arc-extinguishing gas being sprayed thereto. Unnecessary gas generated from the arc-extinguishing gas sprayed to the arc is accumulated in a gas chamber (5).
