Abstract: As the electrical power grids are extending in capacity with connection of distributed generations, the fault current level is increasing and approaching the capacity limits of the circuit ...

Fault current limiters (FCLs) serve as essential protective devices within modern power systems, mitigating the potentially damaging effects of fault currents. By dynamically increasing their ...

A new theory could help build future superconducting alternating-current fault-current limiters for electricity transmission and distribution systems. The work identifies design strategies that can ...

This article deals with the superconducting fault current limiter. It is generally based on the fact that under a given current density (J c), the electric field is completely negligible, but as soon ...
