Three-position switch and gas box using switch

The present invention discloses a three-position switch. An innovative fast direct-acting three-position switch is used, so that a moving grounding contact is separated from a moving isolating contact, and contact ablation after closing of a grounding short-circuit current does not affect flow of a main circuit, thereby improving closing capacity. During opening, the moving isolating contact and the moving grounding contact are respectively shielded by a shielding cover, and arc ablation of the contact does not affect insulating performance of a clearance. A three-phase moving isolating contact and a three-phase moving grounding contact are simultaneously driven by a transmission shaft, thereby ensuring synchronization of three phases. A linear motion of the moving grounding contact and the moving isolating contact is implemented through rotation of a three-position insulating spindle, and switching of actions such as closing, opening, and grounding of the three-position switch is implemented. The present invention further discloses a gas box using the switch.
