Vacuum arc kuzimya chambre, izwi kandi nka vacuum switch tube, nikintu nyamukuru kigize amashanyarazi.Igikorwa cyayo nyamukuru nugukora umuzunguruko kuzimya arc byihuse no guhagarika umuyaga nyuma yo guhagarika amashanyarazi binyuze mumashanyarazi meza ya vacuum muri tube, kugirango wirinde impanuka nimpanuka.Ikoreshwa cyane cyane muri sisitemu yo gukwirakwiza no gukwirakwiza amashanyarazi, ndetse na sisitemu yo gukwirakwiza nka metallurgie, ubucukuzi bw'amabuye y'agaciro, peteroli, inganda z’imiti, gari ya moshi, gutangaza amakuru, itumanaho, gushyushya inganda nyinshi, n'ibindi. Ifite ibiranga kuzigama ingufu, kuzigama ibikoresho, gukumira umuriro, gukumira ibisasu, ubwinshi, igihe kirekire cya serivisi, igiciro gito cyo kubungabunga, imikorere yizewe kandi nta mwanda.Icyumba cyo kuzimya icyuho cya arc kigabanyijemo icyumba kizimya arc cyo kumena imizunguruko, guhinduranya imizigo hamwe nuwahuza vacuum.Icyumba kizimya arc kumashanyarazi yamashanyarazi gikoreshwa cyane cyane mumashanyarazi hamwe nu mashanyarazi ya gride mu rwego rwamashanyarazi, naho icyumba kizimya arc cyo guhinduranya imizigo hamwe n’umuhuza wa vacuum gikoreshwa cyane cyane kubakoresha amaherezo ya gride.
Guhagarika vacuum birimo akaboko kayobora kuyobora kugenzura kwimuka no kurinda inzogera zifunga kutazunguruka, byagabanya ubuzima bwayo cyane.
Nubwo ibishushanyo bimwe na bimwe bya vacuum-interrupter bifite buto byoroshye guhuza, imibonano isanzwe ikorwa hamwe nuduce, imirongo, cyangwa ibinono kugirango bongere ubushobozi bwabo bwo guca imigezi miremire.Umuyoboro wa Arc unyura muburyo bwimikorere itanga imbaraga za magneti kumurongo winkingi, ibyo bigatuma arc ihuza aho igenda yihuta hejuru yubusabane.Ibi bigabanya kwambara bitewe nisuri na arc, ishonga ibyuma byitumanaho aho bihurira.
Gusa bake mubakora vacuum interrupters kwisi yose batanga ibikoresho byitumanaho ubwabyo.Ibikoresho fatizo fatizo, umuringa na chrome, byahujwe nibikoresho bikomeye byo guhuza hakoreshejwe uburyo bwo gushonga arc.Ibice bibisi bivamo bitunganyirizwa kuri disiki ya RMF cyangwa AMF, hamwe na disiki ya AMF yashyizwe ahagaragara irangiye.
