What you call a repeater switch is what I call a 3 shot.
It is a version before an oil filled reclosure for 1 phase.
1st fuse blows and drops to the arm which closes a knife for the second fuse, it the fault is still there 2nd fuse blows and closes a knife for the 3rd fuse and so on.
If 1 or 2 fuses are blown you can refuse the blown holders and open the blades in reverse order to get back to normal and the customers do need see an outage.

Thanks alot .Thats what I thought but didnt know for sure,those old inventions were really cool.Now has anyone here seen the URD spare phase...I know what thats for,so I assume it feeds a 3 phase transformer or some switch gear.And to add to the mystery ,these are cut outs-----believe it or not :nightmare:...https://www.flickr.com/photos/mrservoretro/14980780356/in/pool-2121701@N22/
