Development and Test of 10.5 kV/1.5 kA HTS Fault Current Limiter
Superconducting Fault Current Limiter (SFCL) is an attractive appliance for modern electrical power system. A 10.5kV/1.5 kA three-phase HTS fault current limiter was developed by IEE, CAS. This improved rectifier-type SFCL with HTS coil of 6.25 mH is going on a demonstrated long-term reliable operation in a real 10.5 kV substation located in Hunan, China. In a three-phase-to-ground short circuit test of grid, the prospective fault current of 3.5 kA was limited to 635 A at the pre-setup short-circuit point successfully
