About the GE FK Oil Circuit Breaker

The General Electric FK is an oil circuit breaker used in distribution and subtransmission substations for fault interruption and load switching. It uses a finger-cluster contact design with arcing blocks to confine and extinguish the arc in oil. Contact rod wear, arcing block erosion, and finger degradation are the failure modes that require parts replacement at overhaul. Southern Switch machines FK components to OEM specification and stocks complete kits and individual parts.

Why replace worn OCB contacts

Pitted or eroded oil-circuit-breaker contacts increase resistance and weaken interruption. Precision replacements restore dependable making and breaking under load.
