EMTDC simulation for current limiting characteristics of the resistive and inductive SFCL

저항형과 유도형 한류기의 전류제한특성에 대한 EMTDC 해석

We investigated the current limiting characteristics of resistive and inductive SFCLs with 100 $\Omega$ of quench impedance for a single line-to-ground fault. which accounts for about 70% of the total power line faults, in the 154 kV transmission system. The fault simulation at the phase angles 0$^{\circ}$, 45$^{\circ}$, and 90$^{\circ}$ showed that the resistive SFCL limited the fault current less than 15 kA without any DC component after one half cycle from the instant of the fault. On the other hand, the inductive SFCL suppressed the current below 12 KA, but with 3 kA of DC component which decreased to zero in 5 cycles. We concluded that the inductive SFCL had higher performance in current limiting but the resistive SFCL was better from the view point of DC components.
