It is also non-flammable and non-toxic, which makes it safe to use in railway applications.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bulk oil<\/strong> circuit breakers use oil to extinguish the arc that is created when the circuit is interrupted. Oil is a good conductor of heat, which helps to cool the arc and prevent it from reigniting. However, bulk oil circuit breakers are very heavy and bulky, which makes them impractical for use in railway applications.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Minimum oil<\/strong> circuit breakers use a small amount of oil to extinguish the arc. This makes them lighter and more compact than bulk oil circuit breakers, but they are not as reliable.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Air break<\/strong> circuit breakers use air to extinguish the arc. Air is a good insulator, which makes it difficult for the arc to form. However, air break circuit breakers are not as fast as SF6 circuit breakers, and they are not as reliable in high-current
