Design of an HTS Fault Current Limiting Module

for an MVDC Power Grid

1. Introduction

Thu-Mo-Po4.11-07 [80]

We have studied a DC circuit breaker with an HTS fault current limiting

module for an MVDC power grid.

Among several 2G REBCO conductors from different suppliers, we

selected the most suitable conductor based on the short circuit tests with

sample conductors.

A stabilizer-free REBCO conductor was chosen for a fast reaction to the

fault current. A design work for an MVDC class FCL module was

carried out and verified by simulation.

We prepared the DC overcurrent test system with a supercapacitor of 500

F for the short circuit test with the selected sample HTS conductors.

The maximum applied voltage on the supercapacitor was 14 V, which

generated the fault current of 1,750 A.

The sample HTS conductors were attached on the FRP holder and

immersed in the liquid nitrogen vessel for the short circuit test.

3. 2G HTS sample conductors

6. Design of fault current limiting module

The amount of the stabilizer will affect the resistivity of the HTS

conductor, so that it will define the general performance of the HTS

fault current limiting module and the total amount of the HTS conductor.

We selected five different kind of the HTS conductors to be tested for

their overcurrent performances.

A resistive type HTS current limiting module in series to the DCCB

would reduce the burden of the DCCB when the fault occurs.

A resistive type SFCL module to reduce the burden of a 15 kV class DC circuit

breaker was designed with various kind of 2G REBCO conductors and the current

limiting performance was verified by simulation.

The SFCL module with Stabilizer-free HTS conductor shows faster reaction to

the fault current and shorter duration time.

A scale-down SFCL module will be fabricated and tested in near future.
