A Study on the Reduction Method and the Analysis of VCB Switching Surge for High Voltage Induction Motor

VCB (Vacuum Circuit Breaker), with the strong arc extinction capability in switching the source of an induction motor, occurs the severe switching surge voltage which can cause the breakdown or the deterioration of motor insulation. Therefore, a method which reduces surge voltage across motor windings is necessary. So, it is analyzed that fast-rise-time surges resulting from VCB switching operations give rise to severe voltage stress on turn insulation. Additionally, the switching surge simulation algorithms using EMTP are developed, and C, R values of surge suppressor minimizing the steep-fronted stress in winding insulation surges are calculated.
