“…Promising materials for use in the arc contacts of low voltage circuit breakers are copper based composite materials. Various alloys have been proposed with refractory metals [6] or graphite as LVSD contact materials. In particular, in studies of the erosion of tool electrodes, an analysis of CuCr, CuMo, CuW and CuC alloys was carried out [7].…”

Results of the erosion resistance study of the CuC electrodes manufactured by plasma spraying technology are presented. The diagnostics has have been performed by means of high-speed camera technique and optical emission spectroscopy which has been synchronised with electrical diagnostics. After the load material analyses, namely determination of mass loss and analysis of micro sections, have been done. It has been found that the erosion rate depends on conditions applied for the formation of coating layer, which was deposited either in air or in argon plasma. Furthermore, the erosion rate is signiﬁcantly lower in the case of air plasma spraying.
