The design principles and performance characteristics of a prototype high-temperature superconductor saturable magnetic core-type fault current limiter are described. These are based on a distribution network service provider feasibility specification that included the footprint and regulatory requirements for limiting fault currents. Time-domain simulations using PSCAD/EMTDC are given to illustrate specific applications and the transient behavior of the different distribution system configurations are investigated.

“…At present, the main attention is given to the designs employing HTS materials. Except saturated iron-core [11], [12] and bridge [13], [14] designs, all these devices are based on the transition from the superconducting to the normal state (S-N transition). Inductive, resistive, and various "hybrid" designs are considered in different modifications, based on different superconducting materials and well described in numerous reviews (see, for example, [15]- [19]) and reported at international conferences (ASC and EUCAS 2 ).…”

Design, parameters, and application areas of a superconducting fault current limiter (FCL) are analyzed on the basis of the requirements of power systems. The comparison of resistive and inductive designs is carried out. An example of the effective application of FCLs in distribution substations is considered and the gain from the FCL installation is discussed. It is shown that an FCL not only limits a fault current but also increases the dynamic stability of the synchronous operation of electric machines. The calculation procedure of the parameters of an inductive FCL for a specific application case is described.Index Terms-Fault current limiter (FCL), high-temperature superconductor (HTS), power system.

“…T. Verhaege, and Y. Laumond had a detailed discussion on the concept in 1998 2 . A number of groups have been working on the programs studying and developing SISFCLs so far [3][4][5][6][7] . The schematic configuration of the circuits and the iron-cores for a single phase SISFCL is given in Figure 1.…”
