The invention discloses a brake switch-off and switch-on controller of a high voltage alternating-current circuit breaker. The controller comprises an operating power source, a brake switch-on control interface circuit, a brake switch-off control interface circuit, a brake switch-on control operating part, a brake switch-off operating part, a safety brake switch-on circuit, a brake switch-on coil, a brake switch-off coil, a brake switch-on control outlet device and a brake switch-off control outlet device, wherein the brake switch-on operating part is connected with the brake switch-on control interface circuit, the brake switch-on control interface circuit is connected with the control end of the brake switch-on control outlet device, the brake switch-off operating part is connected with the brake switch-off control interface circuit, and the brake switch-off control interface circuit is connected with the control end of the brake switch-off control outlet device. The brake switch-off and switch-on controller of the high voltage alternating-current circuit breaker is simple in structure, reliable in operation and low in cost. The brake switch-off and switch-on controller of the high voltage alternating-current circuit breaker is high in brake switch-off and switch-on speed, the brake switch-off speed is smaller than or equal to 15 ms, the brake switch-on speed is smaller than or equal to 35 ms, and the brake switch-off time and the brake switch-on time of the circuit breaker are effectively shortened.
