Development of a high‐performance bridge‐type fault current limiter

Abstract: A new high-performance bridge-type fault current limiter (BFCL) is proposed in this study. The proposed BFCL can moderate transient overcurrent in abrupt load change condition and dramatically limit the fault current in fault condition. The key feature of this new BFCL is based on using a switched transformer-type DC reactor. In fact, the secondary side of the transformer is short-circuited during normal condition. Therefore, the transformer has negligible effect on the circuit in this condition. When the load… Show more

“…Interphase power controller (IPC) that is composed of a conventional phase-shifting transformer (PST) and a static synchronous series compensator, and it has the ability of short-circuit current mitigation and power flow control [17]. Bridge-type fault current limiter (BFCL) that uses a switched transformer-type DC reactor, whilst the load current exceeds a predefined threshold, the secondary side of the transformer can be opened by an insulated gate bipolar transistor [18]. These FACTS type devices have possible capability of being applied for fault current suppression, because they can perform power flow regulation functions under steadystate operation conditions [19], and can also be switched to an emergency control status during serious faults.…”

“…Using damping resistor [15], circuit breaker (CB) accurate modelling [16], connecting metal-oxide varistor in parallel with the transformers terminals [17], accurate magnetic core modelling of transformers [18], using control theories to avoid the ferroresonance occurrence [19][20][21] and connecting power electronic equipments in series with the transmission lines [22] are some of the newly suggested schemes for controlling the ferroresonance phenomenon in the power systems. Though, the DC reactor-based fault current limiters have been widely studied to control the fault current amplitude [23][24][25][26], but the effect of the DC reactor on the ferroresonance phenomenon has not been studied yet. In this paper, a novel limiter structure based on DC reactor, i.e.…”
