“…However, as soon as the fault current shows up, SFCL quenches and consequently its resistance increases considerably. Resistive, inductive and transformer type SFCLs are important types of this device [10][11][12][13][14][15]. Although this limiter seems to be an ideal fault current limiter, it is still too expensive, especially due to the cost of its complicated cryogenic system.…”

Short circuit currents of power systems are growing with an increasing rate, due to the fast development of generation and transmission systems. Current Limiting Reactor is one of the effective short circuit current limiting devices. This technique is known to be more practical than other available approaches. In this paper, proper application of CLR to HV substations is proposed, based on a comprehensive short circuit analysis of 4 well-known substation bus bar arrangements. Eventually, appropriate place and number of CLRs is recommended for each bus bar arrangement

Multiterminal high voltage direct current (HVDC) systems are developing rapidly lately. However, the high rising rate of fault current and the lack of interrupting capacity of the available DC circuit breakers hinder the further development of multiterminal HVDC systems. Being aimed at the challenge, this paper proposes a novel inductive DC superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) to cooperate with available DC circuit breakers to cope with the short-circuit fault current in a multiterminal HVDC system effectively. In the normal power transmission of a multiterminal HVDC system, the SFCL presents low impedance and enables a smooth reclosing operation after an interruption. It is able to make a maximum use of the permeability of the iron core to offer a large inductance to curb the rising rate of the fault current in the early few milliseconds as a fault takes place. In addition, it can have an adjustable current limiting threshold to match the different requirements of different grid protection schemes. In this paper, first the working principle of the proposed SFCL is introduced. Then the experimental results on a concept-proofing prototype are reported and analyzed. The experimental results have verified the principle and functional ability of the proposed SFCL.

“…It consists in a primary coil magnetically linked with a superconducting cylinder, and its principle of operation was extensively described elsewhere [4][5][6]. Some of its advantages include the absence of current leads or the adjustment of limiting impedance through primary's number of turns.…”

Abstract. The inductive fault current limiter is less compact and harder to scale to high voltage networks than the resistive one. Nevertheless, its simple construction and mechanical robustness make it attractive in low voltage grids. Thus, it might be an enabling technology for the advent of microgrids, low voltage networks with dispersed generation, controllable loads and energy storage. A new methodology for reverse engineering of inductive fault current limiters based on the independent analysis of iron cores and HTS cylinders is presented in this paper. Their electromagnetic characteristics are used to predict the devices' hysteresis loops and consequently their dynamic behavior. Previous models based on the separate analysis of the limiters' components were already derived, e.g. in transformer like equivalent models. Nevertheless, the assumptions usually made may limit these models' application, as shown in the paper. The proposed methodology obviates these limitations. Results are validated through simulations.
