Low Cost AC Solid State Circuit Breaker

2007 7th International Conference on Power Electronics and Drive Systems, 2007
This paper presents a solid state circuit breaker (SSCB) for a low distribution level. When voltage disturbances occurred, the SSCB operates for keeping the system limitations. Power semiconductor devices are compared and selected by using the performances of their devices. SSCB is provided with circuitry for permitting off/on/reset operations actuated

New Simple-Structured AC Solid-State Circuit Breaker

IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics, 2018
Recently, distributed generators and sensitive loads have been widely used. They enable a solid-state circuit breaker (SSCB), which is an imperative device to get acceptable power quality of ac power grid systems. The existing ac SSCB composed of a silicon-controlled rectifier requires some auxiliary mechanical devices to achieve the reclosing ...
