Abstract

Recently a superconducting fault current limiter(SFCL) has public attentions for the solution of large fault currents of power systems. Though a SFCL has more effective characteristics than the other current limiting devices, there are many problems to apply it to real power systems. For the analysis of transient fault characteristics of the SFCL, we designed and fabricated a inductive SFCL and tested it in 35V line. The superconducting cable of the SFCL was quenched at lower current(49A) than the designed critical current but it limited the fault current to the lower value(150A) than the one expected without SFCL(250A). And within one period the fault current decreased lower than normal laod current.
