Assessment of the Impact of SFCL on Voltage Sags in Power Distribution System

초록

This paper assesses and analyses the effects of superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) installed in power distribution system on voltage sags. First of all, resistor-type SFCL is modeled using PSCAD/EMTDC to represent the quench and recovery characteristics based on the experimental results. Next, typical power distribution system of Korea is modeled. When the SFCL is installed in various locations from the starting point to end point of feeders, improvement of voltage sag is evaluated using the Information of Technology Industry Council (ITIC) curve of customer's loads when a fault occur. Finally, future studies needing to apply SFCL to power distribution system are presented.
