Analysis of Fault and Current-Limiting Methods in the Power System
摘要
The purpose of the power system is to give continuous supply of power to its users in any situation. In this work, various types of faults and their analysis by various techniques are discussed. Fault analysis and the fault current techniques would be discussed and that will show how these techniques are selected. The selection of the current-limiting technique plays a vital role during the faults as the reliability is required. Fault current limiters in power systems are widely used in order to limit the fault currents during faulty situations and make sure there is a continuous supply of power to the consumers. Magnetic properties of superconductivity fault current limiter techniques are considered in the analysis. Solid-State Fault Current Limiters (SSFCLs): This technique is used for setting a level of current which is desired in order to minimize the existing settings of protection. These features in the power systems make them more efficient and reliable which in turn leads to good capital to the systems.
