This paper proposes a novel bridge-type solid-state fault current limiter (BSSFCL) based on
one series reactor which operates in ac and dc modes. The proposed BSSFCL includes a …

In this paper, we develop a optimal transmission switching (OTS) heuristic based on DC
optimal power flow (OPF) and assess the efficacy of the approach when implemented within …

Fault current limiters (FCLs) have been instrumental on industrial level, with their enhanced
power quality with respect to voltage sag mitigation, reduced upgrading of switchgears and …

Existing Power system has a major role indistributed generation. As the power systems are
arriving more and more complicated they are becoming an incorporation of some power …

Protecting inverter-interfaced microgrids is challenging as conventional time-overcurrent
protection becomes unusable due to the lack of fault current. There is a great need for novel …

In the transmission expansion planning (TEP) problem, it is challenging to consider a fault
current level constraint due to the time-consuming update process of the bus impedance …

Recently, there have been many cases in which direct current (DC) facilities have been
placed in alternating current (AC) systems for various reasons. In particular, in Korea …

This paper presents a method to determine the optimal locations for installing back‐to‐back
(BtB) converters in a power grid as a countermeasure to reduce fault current levels. The …

Applying distributed energy resources (DERs) to power systems has been promoted as a
promising option to meet the growing electricity demand. Despite significant economic …

Fault current limiter (FCL) is a novel approach in protecting equipment from excessive fault
current. In this paper, the whole implementation process of FCL devices is presented. There …
