“…4. Unlike the electromechanical CB and recloser, which can only open the fault current after the voltage goes across zero (usually the operating time is longer than half the fundamental-cycle), all SSFCLs are expected to open the fault current under a quarter cycle [2]. In the case of the proposed SiC SGTO, the turn-off time is negligible compared with the period of the line frequency (tens of microseconds versus 16.67 milliseconds).…”

“…The SSFCL microcontroller generates a fault current signal when detecting a value greater than a defined current threshold. The SSFCL not only limit the fault current by turning off the SGTOs but also determine whether the fault is permanent or temporary by a "soft" method: after a few cycles of temporarily blocking the current flow by not firing, the SGTO turn-on signals, the SSFCL goes into a phase-control mode [2]. The phase control decreases the firing angle of the SGTO turn-on signals by a defined step (e.g., 5° per cycle in the simulation example) every subsequent line-frequency cycle from 180° to 0° for letting the current slowly increase from zero back to normal conditions.…”
