Feasible protection strategy for HVDC system by means of SFCL and passive resonance DC breaker

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2019
The key obstacle in implementing high-voltage direct current (HVDC) grid, which is considered as the future of power grid, is the absence of effective DC circuit breaker (DCCB). At present, HVDC grid could be based on half-bridge (HB) or full-bridge (FB)

Coordinated control of DC circuit breakers in multilink HVDC grid

open access: yesCSEE Journal of Power and Energy Systems, 2021
High voltage DC grid is developing towards more terminals and larger transmission capacity, thus the requirements for DC circuit breakers (DCCB) will rise. The conventional methods only use the faulty line DCCB to withstand the fault stress, while this paper presents a coordination method of multiple DCCBs to protect the system.
