The results of studies of a solid-state closing switch for a high-current pulse switching are presented. The experiments were carried out on a laboratory facility with a capacitive energy storage run down a discharge circuit with electrical-explosive opening switch (EEOS) by a current pulse with an amplitude ~450 kA. The discharge circuit consists of two sections separated by a branch with a solid-state closing switch. A metal foil of the EEOS can be located in an interelectrode gap of the closing switch. The operation of the EEOS leads to a breakdown of the insulation of the closing switch, as a result of which an effective shunting of the section of the discharge circuit containing the EEOS occurs. The developed combined solid-state closing switch in the future is capable of providing multi-channel switching of a high-current pulse to the load synchronously with the EEOS operation.
