Circuit Breaker Failure Protection Strategy for HVDC Grids

open access: yesEnergies, 2021
HVDC grids demand the fast and reliable operation of the protection system. The failure of any protection element should initialize a backup protection almost immediately in order to assure the system’s stability.

Systematic Approach to HVDC Circuit Breaker Sizing [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Power Delivery, 2020
High-voltage direct current (HVDC) grids can be protected by HVDC circuit breakers (DCCB) to selectively clear DC side faults and assure continuous operation of the healthy parts in the grid. Line inductors in series with DCCBs are essential to reduce the rate of rise of the fault current and to slow down the voltage decline in the healthy parts of the
