一种用于超快直流故障保护的串联型混合断路器概念

A new series-type hybrid circuit breaker (S-HCB) concept for dc fault protection is reported that is fundamentally different from other prior-art hybrid circuit breakers (HCB) or solid-state circuit breakers (SSCB) in the literature. The S-HCB conducts its load current through metal wires instead of power semiconductor switches and curtails its fault current to near zero throughout the entire open...
