Benefits of Operating a Four Terminal HVDC Network with a Normally Open Point

open access: yes, 2015
It is likely that any HVDC grids will evolve over time and will likely be multi-vendor and use several different technologies. This paper studies a four terminal network where the interconnecting link is operated as a normally open point. This allows the
