About the GE FKD Oil Circuit Breaker
The General Electric FKD is a heavier-duty oil circuit breaker variant with a longer contact rod, revised baffle stack assembly, bushing adapter, and yoke assembly with contact fingers. Like the FK, it interrupts fault current in oil using a finger-cluster design. The contact rod, baffle stack, arcing block, and fingers are the scheduled replacement items at overhaul, and Southern Switch machines FKD components to OEM dimensional specifications.
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.
