Abstract :
A new topology of faulty current limiter (FCL) is presented in the view of power system and power electronics. The new FCL consists of a conventional SCR bridge FCL, a fault-current let-through reactor and a ZnO arrestor. The proposal FCL overcomes the limitation of GTO FCL and SCR Bridge FCL and is more compatible with a modern power system.
