TESLA team examining a high-voltage circuit breaker

*********************************
There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

TESLA team examining a high-voltage circuit breaker

The team examining a high-voltage circuit breaker at an electrical substation. The greenhouse gas, sulfur hexafluoride (SF6), is found in the large horizontal tubes mounted to the platform. The TESLA team will develop a different circuit breaker chamber that will utilize supercritical CO2 instead of SF6.
