Impact of SFCL According to Voltage Sags Based Reliability

초록

Most industrial technologies are automated by sensitive electric parts such as programmable logic controllers(PLCs) and magnetic contactors which are required high power quality. The voltage sags occur in the non-faulted power distribution feeders during the fault duration. Therefore, voltage causes economic losses in the production process of various companies. To solve the fault current and the voltage sags, the superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) is in the spotlight. The SFCL where was located on starting point of the feeder improves the reliability of the facility by reducing the fault current. In addition, it compensates the voltage sags on the bus-bar. In this paper, evaluating the voltage sags based on fault location in the power distribution system with the SFCL through PSCAD/EMTDC simulation. Next, the expected the voltage sags frequency is predicted by the reliability analysis technique of the power distribution system. The expected voltage sags frequency of the power distribution feeder is compared with before and after the application of the SFCL. © 2002-2011 IEEE.
