Multi-port DC circuit breaker based on dual capacitor current limiting and energy sink
The coupling relationship between the removal of the fault current and the dissipation of the residual energy of the fault line during the fault isolation process of the multi-port capacitive current-limiting DC circuit breaker prolongs the breaking time

A Current-Commutation DC Circuit Breaker with Adaptive Reclosing Capability [PDF]
DC faults are critical events in a flexible high-voltage dc (HVDC) grid. Thus, ensuring that the power system returns to normal operation rapidly and reliably after fault isolation is very important. This requires a HVDC breaker. In overhead line systems

DC interruption characteristic of vacuum circuit breaker
AbstractA high‐speed vacuum circuit breaker (HSVCB) has been investigated. HSVCB makes high‐frequency current superimposed on a fault current so that the current is forced to be zero and is interrupted. Its interruption performance is considered to be dependent on the rate of change of the current (di/dt). As a fundamental research, we investigated the

Parameters design of voltage sharing components for the series multi‐break mechanical switch
Series multi‐break mechanical switch is one of the critical components of high‐voltage hybrid DC circuit breakers. However, due to the existence of distributed capacitance, the voltage distribution between the breaks is not balanced.
