A capacitor-commutated DC circuit breaker with fault character discrimination capability was presented in this paper. Taking a 320 kV double-terminal flexible DC system as background, the circuit breaker model was built by PSCAD for simulation verification. The following conclusions can be drawn:
Arcs ranges vary from few amperes to thousands of amperes. Types of arc fault include series arc fault, parallel arc fault [ 10 ]. Any intermittent connection in modules and even in solder joints produces arc faults. Arc lead to high frequency noise in string output voltage or current [ 11 ].
Classification of faults PV system The fault in DC side is divided into two major types: PV array fault and maximum power point tracking (MPPT) fault [ 9 ]. PV Array Fault PV array fault further divided into two main groups PV panel fault and fault in cable.
Capacitor defects significantly contribute to infant and latent failures in integrated circuits. This paper will address methods of locating capacitor defects and root cause determi-nation. Keysight Technologies’ failure analysis team investigated tens of failures in an externally purchased voltage controlled oscillator (VCO).
When a permanent fault occurs in the line, the first voltage inverse traveling wave measured at point M is consistent with the above theoretical analysis. The capacitors of the circuit breakers at both ends of the faulty line can be controlled to inject voltage signals.
The characteristic where the capacitor voltage in the capacitor circuit breaker needs to be released through the energy release branch is used in this paper. The capacitor in the circuit breaker is controlled to discharge to the fault line.
