Author(s) : OHKUMA T., IWATA Y.

Type of article: Article

Summary

FCLs are devices to suppress fault currents in electric power systems. The paper first reviews their necessity, and the research and development status of various types of FCLs in the world. Second, an experimental evaluation of a single-phase FCL system is provided. This system is fabricated by assembling the various components required, such as superconducting coils, high-critical temperature superconducting current leads, refrigeration devices, etc. Fully adequate current limiting performance was achieved.
