We present current limiting properties of 1.2kV/70A superconducting fault current limiter based on YBCO thin films. This is consisted of 6 wafers (3 parallel ${\times}$ 2 serial connection) with 4 inch-diameter YBCO thin film. The quench current Iq of the switching elements vary between 33.9 and 35.6 A. Within the difference of 0.5 A in the sum of quench current Iq in two stacks, the serial connection of the stacks showed the simultaneous quench behavior in applied power of 1.2 kV /70 A.

To apply the superconducting fault current limiter(SFCL) into a power system, the analysis for its recovery characteristics as well as the consideration for its cooperation with other protecting machine such as a circuit breaker is required. The recovery characteristics of the flux-lock type SFCL like its current limiting characteristics are dependent on the winding direction of two coils. In this paper, the experiments of the current limiting and the recovery characteristics of the flux-lock type SFCL with YBCO thin film were performed. From the analysis on the experimental results due to the winding direction of two coils, the limited fault current in case of the additive polarity winding was observed to be lower than that for the case of the subtractive polarity winding. In addition, the recovery time was found to be faster in case of the additive polarity winding compared to the subtractive polarity winding.

A hysteresis control is widely used to control output current of inverter. A hysteresis bandwidth is affected by system parameters such as source voltage, device on/off time, load inductance and resistance. The frequency limiter is used to protect switching devices overload. In the conventional hysteresis controller, a lock-out circuit with D-latch and timer is used to device protection circuit. But switching delay time and harmonic components are appeared in output current. In this paper the performance of lock-out circuit is tested, and new circuit for switching device fault protection is proposed ad it's performance is simulated.

A novel model of an inductive superconducting fault current limiter with an inductive superconducting fault current limiter with the air-gap core was fabricated and tested. If its impedance is not high enough to limit the fault current, then destructive damage occurs in the power system. We attained a magnetic saturation under higher current by an effective air gap introduced in the core. The fault current was successfully limited to two times as much as the nominal current at a 60 Hz source having an effective voltage of 70 V. The fault current flowing under such conditions can be limited to a desired value without any fault current peak within 1/4 cycles.

An effective modeling and simulation scheme of a resistive type Superconducting fault Current Limiter (SFCL) using PSCAD/EMTDC is proposed in this paper. In case of High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) resistive type fault current limiter current limiting is implemented by the ultra-fast transition characteristics from the superconducting (non-resistive) state to the normal (resistive) state by overstepping the critical current density. The states can generally be divided into three sub-states: the superconducting state the quench state and the recovery state respectively. In order to provide alternative application schemes of a resistive type SFCL, an effective modeling and simulation method of the SFCL is necessary. For that purpose, in this study, an actual experiment based component model is developed and applied for the simulation of the real resistive type SFCL using PSCAD/EMTDC. The proposed simulation scheme can be implemented to the grid system readily under various system conditions including sort of faults and the system capacity as well. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model and simulation scheme.

GaAs PIN 다이오드를 이용하여 저손실 고출력 MMIC 리미터를 설계하고 제작하였다. 고전력 수용 능력을 증가시키기 위하여 새로운 GaAs PIN 다이오드 에피구조를 제안하였다. 2종류의 리미터 회로를 설계하고 그리미팅 전력을 측정하였다. 측정결과에서 리미팅 전력은 설계회로 토폴로지에 따라 달라졌다. 제작된 2단 리미터의 리미팅 전력은 14 ㎓에서 각각 17 ㏈m과 23 ㏈m으로 측정되었다.

Due to increase of fault current, various superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) are researched. We studied a power distribution system with SFCL. Along the way, we knew characteristics of fault current according to a distance from substation to fault point. Fault current is reduced by distance`s increase from substation. Also, SFCL.s effects are decreased by distance too. Therefore, we analyzed the fault current by a distance from substation to fault point when a SFCL was applied into a power distribution system. We simulated using a PSCAD/EMTDC.

Increase of fault current due to larger power demand has increased the possibility of the breakdown of the power system. To protect the power system effectively from the larger fault current, several countermeasures have been proposed. Among them, the superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) has been expected as one of the most effective solutions. In this paper, the fault current limiter, which consists of a ideal switch as a trigger part and the limiter as the limiting part, has been applied into the distribution system. From the analysis for the fault current limiting operation of SFCL, the inserting resistance's magnitude has been confirmed to affect OCR trip time in a short-circuit of distribution system.

This paper analyzes a asymmetry current with SFCL (Superconducting Fault Current Limiter) operation during transient period, when a fault occurs in power systems. The principle of asymmetry current nature is reviewed and asymmetry components reduction with SFCL operation is explained. To verify the performance of SFCL, a EMTP/ATPDraw model of SFCLs using MODELS language developed and simulated. Throughout the simulation, results presents the main factors for reducing the asymmetry component of fault current are not a quenching time, but a limiting resistance of SFCL and fault initiated angle.
