A novel embedded voltage‐clamped circuit for multilevel modular converters submodule to suppress very fast transient overvoltage

open access: yesHigh Voltage
The submodule in multilevel modular converters experiences a very fast transient overvoltage (VFTO) during switch operation of gas‐insulated switchgear, which also results in overvoltage on power devices, such as thyristors and insulated gate bipolar ...

Simulation and analysis of a gas insulated switchgear explosion accident caused by a failure of high-voltage circuit breaker in a thermal power plant

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2019
This study analyses a gas insulated switchgear explosion accident caused by a failure of the circuit breaker (CB) in a thermal power plant, which resulted in the explosion of the CB and the burning of the potential transformer (PT).

Research and Experiments on an External Miniaturized VFTO Measurement System

open access: yesSensors, 2019
Disconnect switch and circuit breakers operations in gas insulated switchgear (GIS) systems may produce very fast transient overvoltage (VFTO). Detecting VFTO is the first step for researchers to reduce the damage to other equipment of the substation ...

Modelling and validation of metal oxide surge arrester for very fast transients

open access: yesHigh Voltage, 2018
Metal oxide surge arrester models that are currently on rounds suffer from certain deficiencies and as a consequence, they are not in position to portray accurately the arrester residual voltages.

Research on the fitting method to describe the mathematical expression of VFTO in GIS

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, Volume 2019, Issue 16, Page 2053-2057, March 2019., 2019
Very fast transient over voltage (VFTO) is a unique electromagnetic transient phenomenon occurring in Gas Insulated Substation (GIS), which determines the insulation level of the GIS (above 330 kV). Unfortunately, up to the present, there is no standard VFTO waveform to test the high voltage equipment to ensure the safety of power grid. For this reason,

Simulation on Operating Overvoltage of Dropping Pantograph Based on Pantograph–Catenary Arc and Variable Capacitance Model

open access: yesApplied Sciences
When the electric locomotive pantograph is dropping, the interruption of pantograph catenary contact causes electromagnetic oscillation and arcing. The frequent arc burning that occurs due to charge accumulation results in the amplitude of overvoltage ...

Restrike characteristics of vacuum circuit breaker in its opening process under DC voltage

open access: yesIET Science, Measurement &Technology, Volume 17, Issue 8, Page 297-307, October 2023., 2023
In this paper, a withstand voltage test platform of 40.5‐kV vacuum circuit breaker was established to obtain the effects of the contact spacing and loop and inrush currents of vacuum circuit breaker on the number of restrike, the wavefront steepness of the breakdown voltage, and the breakdown duration.

A low‐cost and high‐performance self‐trigger method for high‐voltage transient measurement

open access: yesHigh Voltage, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 412-420, April 2023., 2023
Abstract Stable triggering of acquisition devices is critical to accurately measure electromagnetic transients, especially for very fast transient overvoltages (VFTOs). A highly stable and low‐cos t self‐trigger method for transient measurement is proposed.
