Question:medium

Resistance switching is used in circuit breaker to:

Show Hint

Resistance switching is primarily used in Air-Blast and $SF_6$ circuit breakers because their high post-arc dielectric recovery rates make them highly susceptible to current chopping and severe transient voltage oscillations.
