Improvement of the Transient Stability of a 14-bus Network Using a Superconducting Fault-Current Limiter SFCL

Advanced Electromagnetics, 2020
This study presents a new strategy for implementing the superconducting fault current limiter SFCL in order not only to limit short - circuit currents but also to improve the stability of electrical networks in the presence of faults. The calculation of the impedance that the limiter must introduce into the test network at the moment of the failure is ...

Ferromagnetically Shielded Fault Current Limiter (FS‐FCL) Evaluation in Power Line

IET Generation, Transmission &Distribution, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
This study introduces a new ferromagnetically shielded FS‐FCL design and its control strategy for limiting and interrupting fault currents. The fully shielded core structure enhances inductance and prevents saturation, enabling an immediate fault response without causing voltage drop during normal conditions.

Multi‐Layer MTDC Protection: Design and Simulation Assessment

IET Generation, Transmission &Distribution, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
This study proposes a novel multi‐layer protection architecture for multi‐terminal DC systems that separates fault current‐limiting and interruption functions. By combining a thyristor‐based fault current limiter with an active resonance circuit breaker, the scheme significantly reduces peak fault currents and di/dt stress, enabling a more compact ...

Transition mechanism of an Inductive-resistive Superconducting Fault Current Limiter (IR-SFCL)

RE&PQJ
Superconducting fault current limiters (SFCL) are protective devices that limit the current in power lines when it suddenly increases above a certain safe level as a consequence of a fault. This element is connected in series with the line and has a null impedance when the line current is below the safe value (limit current) but significative increase ...

Cryogenic DC Circuit Breaker Based on High‐Power Press‐Pack IGBT

IET Electric Power Applications, Volume 19, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
This paper presents the performance of cryogenically compatible 3.3 kV/1.5 kA PP‐IGBTs as the main circuit breaker in a hybrid circuit breaker. The 3.3 kV/1.5 kA press‐pack IGBT can interrupt currents exceeding 5.1 kA when immersed in a liquid nitrogen bath. PP‐IGBTs are promising candidates for high‐power circuit breakers in cryogenically cooled power

Influence of Shunt Branch on the Current Limiting and Recovery Performance of Variable Resistance SFCL

IEEE Access
With the continuous development of power grid, the high short-circuit threatens the stability of the power system. The short-circuit exceeds the disconnection capacity of the circuit breaker and has a negative impact on the integrity and stability of the
