Hybrid Circuit Breaker for HVDC Grids with ControllablePulse Current Shape for Fast Fault Clearing
Laboratory for High Power Electronic Systems
Andreas Jehle and and Jürgen BielaLaboratory for High Power Electronic SystemsZürich, [email protected]
This poster presents two new hybrid Circuit Breaker (hCB) with current injection circuit to extin-guish the arc in the MCB after opening. Compared to other hCBs, this hCBs uses a current injection circuit, which is able to adapt the pulse current and so ensures a low current slope at the arc extinc-tion to prohibit a reignition. Additionally, it is shown that with the increased controllability the volume of the passive components can be decreased compared to existing solutions.

Controllable number of varistors in pulse current path
►Adaptable pulse current ►Partial MCB voltage control with IGBTs
DA conducts after arc extinction
►No initial transient interruption voltage (ITIV)
Transient interruption voltage shared by IGBTs & Cr
►Lower number of series connected IGBTs required
Due the possibility to turn IGBTs independent on and off, the pulse current circuit can be adapted to the fault current by changing the number of varis-tors. Several switching strategies can be used:
IGBT-all: Turn on all IGBTs
►High Lr to limit current slope, ►High Cr to reach maximum pulse current in Lr
IGBT-APC1: Turn on a fault current dependent number of IGBTs
►Places arc extinction near pulse current maximum ►Lower Lr required at flat pulse current maximum ►Lower Cr to reach maximum pulse current in Lr
►Lower rise time
IGBT-APC2: Change the number of turned on IGBTs during the pulse
►Stronger damping near maximum pulse current possible ► Even lower Lr and Cr required ► Even lower rise time

Existing solutions use a precharged capacitor in series with a inductor, which is triggered with thyristors and so generate always the same pulse current
