Abstract One of the challenging issues in the realization of medium‐voltage DC (MVDC) distribution system is high‐speed protection scheme design against quickly rising short circuit fault‐DC current. This paper proposes a high‐speed protection scheme based on the processing of energy signals through mathematical morphology (MM). The voltage and current

Abstract Phase sequence exchange (PSE) is an emerging emergency control method for power systems. However, PSE will generate impulse current and voltage. In this research, to suppress the impulse of PSE, a phase control method for zero‐current opening and equal‐voltage closing is adopted, and verified via both physics and experiments.

Novel power electronic device for power angle stability control
Abstract This letter proposes a novel phase sequence exchange (PSE) device. When the generator loses synchronization and the power angle gradually increases, the primary side of the contact line is disconnected and quickly connected in a staggered phase using the power device with fast breaking characteristics.

Overview of grounding schemes for solid‐state transformers in distribution networks
Abstract Proposed to be the critical enabling component for future distribution networks, solid‐state transformers (SSTs) have drawn much attention lately. They have a massive potential to help reduce size and weight, improve efficiency, integrate microgrids, renewables and energy storages in distribution systems, and can fulfil multiple grid functions

Design criteria of solid‐state circuit breaker for low‐voltage microgrids
Abstract Solid‐state circuit breakers (SSCB) show great promise to become the key element in the protection of low‐voltage direct current microgrids. SSCBs operate in the microsecond range and employ semi‐conductor devices that have strict safe operation area limits.

Design of a snubber circuit for low voltage DC solid‐state circuit breakers
Abstract Solid‐state circuit breakers (SSCBs) are designed to interrupt fault currents typically several orders faster than its electromechanical counterparts. However, such an ultrafast switching operation would produce a dangerous overvoltage which might cause damages to SSCBs and other circuit elements in the system.

Machine Learning Enabled Cluster Grouping of Varistors in Parallel-Structured DC Circuit Breakers
This letter presents the first ever trial of machine learning enabled cluster grouping of varistors for DC circuit breakers (DCCBs). It reveals that the manufacturing discrepancy of varistors is a main challenge in their parallel connection. The proposed

Abstract The high‐surety power supply systems are gaining great attention to enhance the reliability of uninterruptable power supplies. A high‐resistance fault along a high‐surety power supply feeder results in a low fault current, making the conventional high‐surety power supply protection strategy ineffective.
