Abstract
The growing use of vacuum interruption devices by the power and control industry in the last decade introduces these devices to many people for whom the area of vacuum interruption is somewhat new. It is felt that a review of the subject of vacuum interruption from a scientific and technological viewpoint, is needed. This summary will present an overall view of the topic and will facilitate its understanding. This paper will also provide the most complete chronological bibliography available today on this subject.Keywords
